Brothers Jake and Callum Robinson from Australia and American Jack Carter Rhoad reportedly stopped to surf the breaks between Punta San José, where they were attacked on April 28 or 29.

Chief state prosecutor María Elena Andrade Ramírez theorised that the killers wanted to steal from the foreigners, Callum and his companions. However, when the men resisted, the killers shot them.

"The evidence suggests they (the killers) did not know where they were from,” she added. Police are questioning three people in connection with the killings.

“This is a terrible tragedy and my heart goes out to them. To identify these wonderful young men and they have been travelling in Mexico. We’ve been dealing with them through the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. I’ve indicated that I wish to speak to them at an appropriate time of their choosing,” Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese told reporters in the Queensland state town of Rockhampton, expressing that he wants an opportunity to speak to the brothers’ parents.
