A grim discovery was made near the entrance to Playa del Carmen on Federal Highway 307, where workers found a bag containing human remains in an advanced state of decomposition. The incident occurred on Wednesday, March 5, around 7 p.m., approximately 500 meters from a police checkpoint in the direction of Cancun.
The remains were uncovered by workers using machinery to clean the roadside. Authorities from the Secretariat of Citizen Security responded to the scene, cordoning off the area to secure the site.
Forensic experts from the State Attorney General’s Office later removed the remains and transported them to the Forensic Medical Service for further investigation. The case is under active inquiry as officials work to determine the identity of the victim and the circumstances surrounding the discovery.
