Montemorelos: Five family members found dead in Nuevo León
Five members of a single family, including three minors, were found dead in two separate locations in Montemorelos, Nuevo León, on Wednesday, September 30, 2026.
The first discovery occurred around 9:30 a.m. in the Los Fresnos neighborhood, where authorities found a woman and a child, approximately three years old, deceased inside a red Jeep. A firearm was also recovered from within the vehicle.
Following reports from relatives, investigators located the remaining victims in a nearby residence on Nogales Street. There, they found two other children and an adult male, believed to be the woman's partner. Neighbors reported hearing loud music coming from the home during the early morning hours, suggesting a gathering may have taken place. The Fiscalía General de Justicia de Nuevo León is conducting an investigation to determine the circumstances of the deaths.
