Mutilated corpses and severed body parts were found dumped in seven locations across the metropolitan area of the Mexican city of Monterrey on Tuesday in a spate of violence that unnerved residents of Mexico's industrial capital.

Authorities said they are still analyzing the dismembered body parts to try to identify how many people had been killed. Local media have reported there could be up to 12 victims and that some of the body parts were discovered in coolers.

The gruesome discoveries recalled a bloody period in the 2010s when cartel conflicts engulfed the city and bodies were left in the streets or hanging from bridges.

The brutality of the violence had subsided in Monterrey, which was recently chosen to be the home of a new Tesla car plant.
