A serial killer on the US-Mexico border looks like a Ted Bundy impersonator, at least to Mexican authorities who are desperately trying to track him down.

So far, cops believe the killer smothered 3 Tijuana sex workers - women he targeted at strip clubs, lured into a hotel room...and who he then performed violent sexual acts before killing them.

The Attorney General of Baja California (Mexico), Ricardo Iván Carpio Sánchez, told reporters on Friday..."This subject has criminal tendencies associated with violent and psychopathic behavior. His profile looks a lot like someone one who became very well known decades ago: Ted Bundy."

They also suspect the killer is American. Tijuana is just across the border from California.

Bundy confessed to kidnapping and murdering 30 women and girls across the United States from 1974 to 1978. He was later captured and executed by the state of Florida in 1989.

Carpio says they have the name of a possible suspect. They're not saying it publicly yet, but he says they've shared the information with US law enforcement, including the FBI, so they can coordinate their efforts to capture him.
