Two of the Four Americans Kidnapped After Shootout in Mexico Found Dead

Two of the four US citizens violently kidnapped in Mexico last week have been found dead and two others alive, officials announced Tuesday.

One of the surviving Americans was wounded and the other was unharmed, Tamaulipas Gov. Américo Villarreal said.

The foursome from South Carolina — identified as Latavia “Tay” McGee, Shaeed Woodard, Zindell Brown, and Eric James Williams — were abducted at gunpoint in broad daylight on March 3, shortly after they crossed the border from Texas into the border city of Matamoros in the northeastern state of Tamaulipas.

The group of friends had traveled to Mexico for a cosmetic medical procedure when they were shot at and forced into the back of a pickup truck, according to relatives.

McGee was scheduled for a tummy tuck surgery on the day of the kidnapping, said her mother, Barbara Burgess. Her pals had accompanied her on the trip. (Read more from “Two of the Four Americans Kidnapped After Shootout in Mexico Found Dead HERE)
