The body, along with a banner, was discovered early Monday morning at Reforma and Paseo Colon in Nuevo Laredo.
According to reports, the victim, in his twenties, had been tortured and beaten severely.
He was tied and bound, and his arms and legs were cut off, then he was beheaded.
The banner included a message from the zetas for any rival cartels, saying the victim's fate would be the same for anyone considering coming into their territory.
This discovery comes after another violent weekend across the border in Nuevo Laredo, with several shootouts in the streets and more people being killed.
