MONTERREY, Mexico -- Mexico's military says 25 suspects have been shot dead by soldiers in a gunbattle near the U.S. border.

A spokesman says soldiers were patrolling around noon Thursday in the town of General Trevino when they came under fire from gunmen on a ranch. The troops returned fire and killed at least 25 people.

The spokesman says three people believed to be kidnap victims were rescued.
