CHETUMAL, Mexico — A woman was caught trying to sneak her common-law husband out of a Mexican prison in a suitcase following a conjugal visit, police said.
A spokesman for police in the Caribbean state of Quintana Roo said staff at the prison in Chetumal noticed that the woman seemed nervous and was pulling a black, wheeled suitcase that looked bulky.
Spokesman Gerardo Campos said Monday that prison guards checked the bag of 19-year-old Maria del Mar Arjona and found inmate Juan Ramirez Tijerina curled up inside in the fetal position.

Ithaca pair jump from Tappan Zee Bridge; woman dies, man in critical condition
10:21 PM, Jul. 12, 2011

A man and a woman holding hands -- neither wearing clothes -- pulled their SUV over on the Tappan Zee Bridge Tuesday morning and jumped from the span.

The body of Alfa Choice, 29, was pulled from the Hudson River under the bridge a short time later. Christopher Shears, 44, was rescued alive but in extremely critical condition, officials said.

Originally from the Bronx, officials said Choice and Shears lived in Ithaca.

Shears was taken by Nyack Ambulance Corps and Rockland Paramedic Services to Nyack Hospital, where he was said to have undergone surgery. His condition remained critical Tuesday evening, officials said.

The drama began at 9 a.m. when workers doing construction on the bridge saw a tan Chevrolet Tahoe, driven by Shears, pull over in a southbound lane of the bridge on the Westchester side.

State Police Investigator Joseph Becerra said the couple exited the SUV and then climbed a wall and a fence to reach the work platform from which they jumped. Witnesses said the naked couple were holding hands before they plunged.

Workers doing construction under the bridge were the first to reach the victims; Piermont and Nyack firefighters assisted in the rescue. State police were also at the scene.

Becerra said the incident is being investigated as a possible double-suicide attempt.

Investigators had searched the couple's Chevrolet, but Becerra would not comment on the contents found in the vehicle. Police do not believe drugs or alcohol played a role in the couple's actions, but were waiting for the results of toxicology reports.

The motivation behind the double jump remained unclear Tuesday night.

"There's an ongoing investigation to determine what their reasons were," Becerra said. "We're looking at whether they were distraught or if there were other underlying issues."

Police Tuesday evening were investigating the nature of the couple's relationship. Becerra said investigators believed Choice and Shears lived together in Ithaca, but provided no address.
