'Arellano-Felix cartel' executes victims

Six executed kidnapping-victims have been found inside a house in the Mexican town of Tijuana, where armed men took refuge during a shootout with soldiers.

The firefight broke out when agents prepared to raid a house near the US border that police now say was a shelter for a cell of a drug cartel named Arellano-Felix.

According to Edgar Millan, a spokesman for the federal public safety department, the victims, all male, were blindfolded and gagged and shot in the head.
