A heartbreaking incident has shaken the surfing world. Last week, the bodies of three surfers were discovered in a remote well near Ensenada, Mexico. Australian brothers, Jake and Callum Robinson, along with their American friend, Jack Carter Rhoad, tragically lost their lives. Authorities have now revealed that they were killed in an apparent carjacking, with gunshot wounds to the head as the cause of death.

The three surfers were initially reported missing on April 27 when they did not return from their Airbnb rental. After an extensive search, their bodies were found 50 feet deep in a well in La Bocana, alongside another body that had been there for some time. Family members were present to identify their loved ones in person.

During a press conference on May 6, prosecutors announced that they believe the carjackers targeted the surfing group in an attempt to steal the wheels from their pickup truck. Three individuals have been taken into custody, one of whom was found with one of the victim’s cellphones. Two of the suspects were arrested on drug-related charges, while the third was wanted for kidnapping.

It appears that Jake, Callum, and Jack were enjoying a surfing trip along the Baja coast when the tragedy occurred. Prosecutors mentioned that they found tents, spent gun shells, and bloodstains at a makeshift encampment where the attack took place.

Debra Robinson, the mother of Jake and Callum, had been actively posting about her sons’ disappearance. Now, she and her husband Martin are grieving the loss of their beloved children. Debra expressed her deep sorrow during a news conference, stating, “Our hearts are broken, and the world has become a darker place for us. They were young men who were passionate about surfing and enjoyed every moment together.”

At this time, E! News has reached out to the Baja California Attorney General’s Office for further information but has not received a response.

Let us remember Jake, Callum, and Jack, and send our thoughts and prayers to their families and the surfing community in this difficult time.
