Mexican authorities say two professional wrestlers found dead in a hotel in the country's capital may have been fatally drugged by a gang of female robbers.
Autopsies are being performed on the two midget wrestlers, one of whom went by the name La Parkita, meaning Little Death, and wore a skeleton costume in the ring. The other was known as Espectrito Jr.
Authorities said the two women were seen leaving the men's Mexico City hotel room before the bodies were discovered on Monday.
Miguel Angel Mancera, a prosecutor, said gangs of female robbers were experienced in using drugs to knock men out before robbing them but these robbersmay have used too strong a dose.
That may have been because of the wrestlers' stature, although larger men have died in similar crimes.
Midget wrestling is officially featured at professional wrestling tournaments in Mexico and the US.
