MEXICO CITY, Mexico (CNN) -- Authorities in the Mexican state of Baja California are investigating the deaths of four people, including at least one American, whose bodies were found in a canyon over the weekend, a police spokesman said Monday.The decomposed bodies of three men and one woman were found Sunday evening near Rosarito, about 20 miles south of the U.S. border, Baja California state police spokesman Rogelio Contreras said. Two of the bodies were found in a car with California license plates, and all the victims appear to have been "executed," he said.A U.S. government official, who asked to remain anonymous, told CNN that one of the four victims was an American. The nationality of a second victim was unknown, while the others were either known or suspected to be non-Americans, the official said.Northern Mexico has been the scene of a struggle between the government of President Felipe Calderon and drug gangs who have fought battles with rival traffickers, police and Mexican troops. The U.S. State Department travel alert warned visitors in April that international visitors have fallen victim to killings or kidnappings in the region.
