2 Americans travelling to Mexico for a surgery trip confirmed dead after kidnapping

Apparently the group decided to travel from South Carolina to Brownsville Texas to save $3,000 on cosmetic surgery. Bad decision.
Hopefully none of the group were able to reproduce before stupidity ended their lives
 
Dieting and exercise is something I would recommend that traveling to an ultra violent country like Mexico.

Two of the four Americans kidnapped in Mexico have been found dead, while the other two were rescued alive, officials announced Tuesday.

The survivors -- Eric James Williams and Latavia "Tay" McGee -- have returned to the U.S., their families said.

The four Americans -- Williams, McGee, Zindell Brown and McGee's cousin Shaeed Woodard -- arrived Friday morning in Matamoros, Mexico, which is in the northeastern state of Tamaulipas just south of Brownsville, Texas.

"Shortly after crossing into Mexico, unidentified gunmen shot the passengers of the vehicle," the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City said. The Americans had been traveling in a white minivan.

"The gunmen herded the four U.S. citizens into another vehicle and fled," the embassy said.

The Americans were not directly targeted, Attorney General of Tamaulipas, Irving Barrios, said at a news conference.

It "seems to be that it was a misunderstanding," Barrios said.

Mexican investigators believe the kidnappers may have wrongly believed the Americans were rival human traffickers, a source close to the investigation told ABC News.

The two survivors were found Tuesday morning in a wooden house in the Lagunona area, outside of Matamoros, Mexican officials said at a news conference. One of the deceased was also found inside the house, and the second was found outside it, a source close to the investigation told ABC News.

Williams had a gunshot wound to his leg, said the governor of Tamaulipas, Américo Villarreal.
