For a map, click here. For a map of Durango click here. To read a previous report on the Durango mass graves click here.Conflicting reports on Mexican news websites Milenio and El Diario de Coahuila have the death toll of between 171 and 181. As of 1555 hrs, El Diario de Coahuila reports the death toll at 181, while as of 2134 hrs Milenio reports the death toll at 171, sourced from the Mexican wire service Notimex. Dunno if the difference is a language problem, or a journalist did some math. We will know more tomorrow morning. Durango state attorney general's office said this morning the total in Durango is 180, and includes five, not four sites.
The death toll in mass graves in Durango, Durango rose to 180 dead as a fourth and a fifth gravesite were discovered and are currently being excavated, according to Mexican press reports.

Previous reports said that the two original sites in La Providencia and La Fuentes colonies were being excavated since the discovery of the third gravesite in Vicente Suarez colony. No new bodies have been found in any of the three other sites.

The fourth gravesite is in Valle del Guadiana colony and as with the other three gravesites, is within Durango city limits.

The fifth gravesite is in Ejido San Ignacio, El Consuelo, Durango, just north of Gomez Palacio, which is several hundred kilometers east of Durango city.
Strange that Mexican press would include this gravesite in the Durango city total.
A total of 17 dead at the new site have been found. whic were exhumed Monday. The gravesite is currently being worked by a unit of the Mexican Army.

In other news, the beheaded bodies of six unidentified individuals were dumped near a secondary school in Azcapotzalco colony in Durango city early Sunday morning.

The discovery was made near the Escuela Secundaria Tecnica numero 57 on Calle Uxmal, where students were to gather for a celebration of Mothers Day. An intimidating message was left with the bodies.
