severed heads have been found in bags in the resort of Acapulco in Mexico.
The heads were found in black sacks outside a tunnel connecting the centre of the city to the outskirts.
All three heads belonged to men, the Guerrero state public safety department said in a statement.

Crackdown: A police helicopter flies over Acapulco, Mexico, where three heads were found in sacks. There has been 35,000 deaths across the country in the last five years
A note at the scene said the beheadings were a revenge attack for the killing of a man shot dead during an attempted kidnapping.
In January the decapitated bodies of 15 men were found near a shopping centre in the city, all aged between 25 and 30.
Decapitations in Acapulco are relatively common among drug cartels and have escalated since President Felipe Calderon launched an offensive against them in 2006.

Tens of thousands have died in total in recent years as the drug cartels continue to hold the country in their grip.
President Calderon has poured thousands of troops onto the streets in a military crackdown aimed at ending the scourge.
But his critics argue the move has worsened the problem because it encourages yet more violence.
Police have also announced the capture of a suspected prominent drug gang member who allegedly oversaw kidnappings, extortion, bribery and local drug distribution for a group known as the 'independent cartel of Acapulco'.
The federal Public Safety Department said that Benjamin Flores Reyes, known as "The Godfather" was arrested on Sunday after a six month investigation.
In recent months, Acapulco has seen a wave of organized crime violence blamed on warring drug gangs.
On Sunday, armed men attacked a police station in the city, wounding an officer. The same suspects later shot at a house, wounding two people at the residence.
More than 35,000 people have been killed across Mexico in drug-related violence since President Calderon's offensive on drug cartels began.
