Residents in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, discovered the severely mutilated body of a federal police officer Sunday outside a strip mall, the latest victim in Mexico’s ongoing drug war.

Unknown assailants “pulled off the hands, feet, head, legs and arms” of the victim, the state of Chihuahua prosecutor’s office said.

Other victims reported over the weekend include three in the border town of Palomas — their heads were left on benches in the downtown plaza — three killed in the state capital Chihuahua City, four in Parral, and five shot dead in Ciudad Juarez, police said.
