Two people from Reynosa — a 24-year-old identified with the initials “F.H.O.” and a 40-year-old man identified with the initials of “H.G.G.” — were arrested on Tuesday. According to the attorney general’s office, both men were identified as the alleged perpetrators.

"H.G.G." was arrested in the Mexican state of Coahuila, the release added. 

A spokesperson for the Tamaulipas State Attorney General’s Office said the suspects' names and faces would not be made public to avoid violating their due process. The Mexican penal code prohibits publicizing a person’s full identity when they are considered innocent until proven guilty.

Both men remain in custody, and the investigation continues.
