What some people will do to improvise...

According to this report, a man in Tijuana, Mexico drove around town on his motorcycle with a helmeted corpse seated behind him. He apparently missed a curve and crashed, but fled the scene leaving his victim behind. The police thought that he had been killed in the accident, but saw that he had other injuries (knife wound to the forehead, strangulation marks) and determine he had died from other suspicious causes at least 6 hours earlier. Castro [the Baja, CA police spokesman] said that “the dead man had wraps of methamphetamine in his pocket and an unkempt appearance, which led investigators to believe the killing was drug related. ‘We think the killer was trying to take the body to a more deserted area to dispose of it,’ he said.”
