The heads of two were wrapped in duck tape.

The three others were found in plastic trash cans.

A note left nearby warned, "This is what will happen to 'The Engineer' and everyone who runs with him. We'll make pozole out of them."

Its not clear if the deaths are the result of battles within the Arellano Felix cartel, or if other groups are trying to horn in on the key drug smuggling turf between Tijuana and San Diego.
