Four black Americans kidnapped in Matamoros, Mexico, have been identified.
Family members say Latavia “Tay” McGee, Shaeed Woodard, Zindell Brown, and Eric James Williams traveled to Mexico from South Carolina so that one of them could get a tummy tuck procedure.
On Friday, the four friends traveled from South Carolina in a minivan when they crossed the US border into Matamoros, Mexico.
Soon after they entered, the group was ambushed by armed men and forced into the back of a pickup truck.
All have been located, with two friends found dead, the third was injured, and the fourth was unharmed. An Innocent bystander was also killed.
The Gulf cartel dominates Matamoros, and the US State Department has advised Americans not to travel to the Mexican state due to the risk of crime and kidnapping.
The FBI has launched an investigation and is partnering with Mexican law enforcement agencies.

Man we don't have gang controlled areas in America. They have real cartel controlled areas in Mexico. Like they're moving billions of dollars worth of avocados type of controlled areas.
They duke it out with the army type of controlled areas.
That people went to Mexico for something else
We should start purging against the wet baks in the USA as for get back for them 4 that lost they lives 🤷🏾♂️💯 smoke any wet bak we see let the games begin
That’s it for me. MEXICO is out in my book. Dey kidnapping Black people!? 🥶SHEESH!!!
I heard the blacks were in Mexico to buy drugs and something went wrong. That's why they were killed. The group has a criminal history. Sound more like it.
They were black who cares. Probably doing something they were not supposed to.
all the American had drugs records in criminal activities and just got down to get a deal and got all wrong
2:20 – this woman talking about civil rights organisations to retrieve these people, obviously we now know only the woman survived. She’s totally ignorant to what goes on in Mexico!! This happens every day!!
I’ve been to Cancun and Playa Da Carmen. Last trip was 6 years ago. I’d never go now! It’s amazing it takes this to happen for some to realise what goes on in the world!!
Mexico is more dangerous than the worst parts of USA. You couldn't pay me to go there.
The way the world is now I think as an American we should be able to travel and conceal weapons if I were to go to Mexico I would have a gold plated Tommy gun and for sure some hornet spray..
Look at the savagery of Mexico. They’ve endured nothing of the barbarity dished out to blacks yet their land has become a high risk hell hole for foreigners. Why aren’t US cops gunning down Mexicans gang members in the US as frequent as blacks going to the corner shop or fast asleep in their apartments?
One day, maybe just one day…. no matter which/ whose perspective, all persons eligible will simply be considered as " 4 Americans traveled to Mexico. 2 of them were found alive, and 2 were deceased.
Color of skin will solely be referred to when a physical description is required. An American is just "American", regardless of race, color, ect. That's my personal definition of Land of the FREE!.
* I get why instances such as this tragic event is described as such with overall motives of bringing awareness to the community.
✌🏽
🚓🚓🚓Criminals..😂🤣😂
They were criminals too..reports already came about them.
Stop going to Mexico to try and find a plug when you don’t know anyone.
Also as a American of you blankly ignore the governments warnings not to go and still go don’t expect the US government to save you.
Not even Mexicans go to Matamoros
I live in Mexico just fine because I know where to go
If you are truly ignorant don’t come to Mexico or buy a guided tour
A simple google search would tell you Matamoros which is inside Tamaulipas a dangerous state is a no go zone.
Wow
BPM LIVE
If the USA really wanted something done against these type of atrocities, they would end business ties with Mexico like maquiladoras, automobiles factories, clothing factories, etc. I’ll be waiting to see what the USA government will do?
Drug mules … trying to tuck drugs in that tummy
If anyone is looking for The Biden Administration to do anything you can forget it. Cartel members are some of the same people that are being welcomed across OPEN BORDERS. 🤷🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
But you hypocrites won’t talk about their criminal backgrounds right?
Sht they kill law enforcement to ….
A tummy tuck they never heard of Xzibit shot it helped faster
Is just to show you right there how light-skinned people are privileged and white skin privilege
These 2 didn't deserve to die. Next time someone wants to go to mexico for tummy tuck, go by yourself. Don't put other ppl lives in danger for your vanity.
I will never, ever, EVER travel to Mexico again!
The Mexican cartels do not like blacks people . They don’t even like darker Mexicans that live there . They were trying to kill off the indigenous darker skinned people . That is part of why a lot of Central Americans and darker Mexicans were trying to come here to the U.S.
You don’t go to Mexico without knowing someone that actually knows Mexico backwards and forwards. Even Mexican Americans who have family there , aren’t even that safe
Still waiting on some action from BLM, Al Sharpton & the NAACP
Autistic liar 😂🦍🦍
I'll take my chances in the US
The lady was wearing so much that it was distracting me from what she was saying especially the nails and the hat like nothing matches
I'd rather go to Mexico than Chicago and St Luis. People act like you can't get shot walking down the street in the U.S.
