Callum Robinson, Jake Robinson, and Jack Carter Rhoad were last seen on April 27 at the popular surf spot La Bocana, south of Ensenada in Baja California. Mexican authorities believe their bodies are the ones pulled from the bottom of a 50-foot well in a remote part of the state.

Mexican authorities on Sunday revealed the likely reason why thieves killed an American man and two Australian brothers on a surfing trip to Mexico . Baja California state prosecutors believe the three surfers were targeted because the thieves wanted to steal the tires from their truck, they said during a press conference, the Associated Press reports.

A fourth body was also recovered in the well, though that body was there longer judging by its decomposition, officials said. The thieves allegedly covered the well with boards. "It was literally almost impossible to find it," Andrade Ramírez said, and it took two hours to winch the bodies out of the well.
