Body of missing Mexican journalist found as death toll rises

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - The body of a Mexican journalist was found on Tuesday a week after going missing in the northern border state of Sonora, local authorities said, as the death toll for media workers in the country continues to rise.

Juan Arjon Lopez, who ran the Facebook webpage "A que le temes," went missing on Aug. 9, according to the state attorney general. A body with tattoos matching those of Arjon was recovered Tuesday in the town where he disappeared, San Luis Rio Colorado.
