Three US citizens staying at an Airbnb in Mexico City were found dead inside their apartment from what appeared to be carbon monoxide poisoning, authorities said Nov 8.

Security guards in the apartment complex reported a strong smell of gas to police, who found the bodies of a woman and two men inside, the city prosecutor’s office said. They were discovered Oct 30 in La Rosita, a neighbourhood close to Santa Fe, a wealthy area lined with corporate skyscrapers.
