PUERTO PALOMAS, MEXICO -- Authorities in Mexico are looking into a mass grave that was found across the border from Columbus, New Mexico.
Carlos Gonzalez, the spokesman for the Chihuahua State Attorney General's Office, says that the office found a grave with 18 bodies. They were found in the small town of Puerto Palomas.
It's not clear how long the bodies have been there, or if they are linked to escalating drug violence along the border.
