Three soldiers killed in Sinaloa shootout





Three Mexican Army suffered more casualties Monday evening in a shootout with gunmen in the Pacific coast state of Sinaloa. Sinaloa newspapers reported that three soldiers were killed and two others critically injured in the incident that occurred in the northern Sinaloan city of Guasave that is known as a stronghold of the Beltran Leyva gang known as La Limpia Mazatleca.

The Beltran Leyva gang in northern Sinaloa, led by "el Chapo Isidro"Isidro Meza Flores, has been waging a violent campaign against the state police and federal forces who they accuse of collusion with their bitter enemy Chapo Guzman and the Sinaloa Cartel. Los Mazatlecos are also active in the southern Sinaloa port of Mazatlan and the neighboring state of Nayarit.

According to published reports an Army patrol was in pursuit of several vehicles with armed men on board through the streets of Guasave. At least two Army trucks were able to stop the gunmen in downtown Guasave but were outgunned and overwhelmed. Witnesses reported that the gunmen also suffered casualties but they were retrieved by fellow gangmembers, leaving behind only a white pickup and several weapons.

No arrests were reported by the authorities.

The gunbattle, which occurred at approximately 6:00PM Pacific time, provoked a state of panic as the area was filled with residents trying to escape the heavy volume of gunfire. Hundreds of empty cartridges littered the scene and nearby businesses were damaged. There were no reports of injuries or fatalities of innocent bystanders.

Moments after the gunfire ended and Army and police reinforcements arrived a tense standoff broke out when it was learned Guasave municipal police officers in the area had refused to respond to the soldiers' pleas for support by radio and had only arrived after the shooting had ceased

The 40 minute standoff between the Army and state police against the municipal police officers ended with the 32 municipal officers at the scene being disarmed, handcuffed and detained for questioning, including police chief Leocadio Cabrera Delgado. Although not officially under arrest the officers were transported Tuesday morning to the state capitol of Culiacan for questioning by state prosecutors.


The remaining municipal police force in Guasave has reportedly been restricted from patroling the streets, and the Army is out in force searching for the killers.

Names of the dead soldiers:
Jesús Antonio Robles Galaviz
Pedro Javier Valenzuela
Neftalí Zacarías Santos

Names of the wounded soldiers:
José Juan Gutiérrez Zárate
Juan Miguel Flores Guzmán

These are the latest casualties that Mexican military forces have suffered within the past week. Last Friday a shootout in Nuevo Laredo left one soldier dead and five others wounded. Four gunmen belonging to Los Zetas were killed, although unofficially both the military and the criminals suffered higher losses.

In what was a sudden upsurge in violence in Tamaulipas, gunfights broke out in several of the northern border state's cities last week through today. Although impossible to confirm, there are unofficial reports of military casualties, including deaths, in Reynosa, Matamoros and Ciudad Victoria. Violence has also been reported in Valle Hermoso, Rio Bravo and San Fernando.

On Tuesday, January 31, military forces kill at least three gunmen in separate gunbattles in Matamoros.

  3. Who knows if that happened in Mx? The same image was published on a gore website, with this description: "This is the most disturbing bone dislocation I have ever seen I can’t imagine the pain. This picture was taken in the ER room in the town of Fundacion in Colombia. The guy was drunk driving his motorcycle and got in a crash with a car."

  4. I winced when I first saw the picture of the guys bone sticking out.

  7. The last one is not a soldier. Mexican army doesn't wear white t-shirts.

    I don't think a bullet can do that type of damage. That injury is probably from a car crash.

  8. that looks like he got ran over.. Might be from somewhere else.. I hate it when military members die, especially when they publish their names.

  9. Los Beltran Leyva is the most dominant & loyal cartel no question , soldiers are sent in there to takeout the BLO by Chapo & Mayos orders but these guys arent your average sicarios .
    CDS is always getting theyre asses handed tp them by Isidros people really makes you wonder about all the fantasy CDS worshipors live in .
    Cant help but mourn the soldiers they were probably sent in there on orders from their superior you never know who your working for the sating goes

    4. Zetas that work for/with Beltranes are Lazcas people not 40s . Where did you hear Beltranes are done in a movimiento alterado corrido? Couldent help but laugh at that one they are gaining more ground all the time already operate freely in Culiacan like they did before

    5. Thanks to the zetas!!

  10. Even more disturbing than the pic is the police who refused to respond to the aid of the military. The question must be asked, are they scared or crooked. I hope they where just scared. Either way they should all be relocated to picking up trash instead of being the police. Its a shame when you can't count on your own side for aid.

    ReplyDelete
  11. F*** those cops. They should all be locked up. Charge with manslaughter or failure to offer aid. You could never trust them again.
    Anyone who needs a job. Sinaloa needs policemen. Looking for brave men who are not afraid to be a hero or die for his country.

  21. @4:17 Beltrans are keeping it cool with The Guzmans, which is very different to being with them.


    I believe this is one of the big problems in Mexico, their police force. Here in the states we respect our law officials, our cops are trained and for the most part not corrupt (for other then a couple rotten apples). Police in Mexico are a complete joke, there is no respect for them. Everybody knows, you get pulled over, you offer the "mordida" (bribe). Look at that soccer player playing in Mexico posting on twitter how he was being constantly extorsioned by cops.

    1. Its the other way around cds makes truces with blo but they always break them by sneeking in & trying to make suprise attacks on blo like the ones in burrion & guamuchil . Chapo is no longer a man of his word this should be common knoledge by now.

  22. The cops who refused to respond are no good to anyone.These are the type of fuckers who are supposed to have your back?This is the worst situation you can think of.They should be summarily sacked.Sack their asses now.They cannot justify themselves with any explanation.Your fellow authorities asking for help,and they wont turn out?Fuckin rats.Plain to see where their loyalties lie.

  23. @11:41 BLO is far from being as strong as the CDS, come on man your talking about an organization made up of El Azul Esparragosa, El Mayo Zambada, and El Chapo. The 3 biggest and oldest drug traffickers alive. The truth is these men rely on actual drug trafficking and not extorsion, kidnapping, and all that BS like the zetas, rojos, familia michoacan, Templarios or CAF. They deal with situations like corporate sharks do. They saw the Beltrans getting to up there, they take them out, it's not the first time they do it or the last. Thing is nobody ever had the balls (or money and power) to actually declare war on them. About the loyalty part you are right, seems like the people close to the BL guys are still loyal. El Chapo Isidro wReaks havoc whenever he has too, CDS has put together teams of hundreds of men and they still can't do anything. And he does no have to boast about it, the Antrax guys get in one little shot out and theY have 5 songs written about it. Don't get me started on the Torres family, who doesnt have money to feed their families but still have money to give singers to write them songs.

  31. Here is what should have happened. The 32 police officers from Guasave should have been summarily executed for dereliction of duty by the army after they were rounded up. If Calderon had personally given such an order, it would send an incredible message to every cop in the country. HE NEEDS TO DISPLAY A RUTHLESS IRON FIST to these fuckers.

  32. What kind of bullet would do that? My money is on a 7.62x51mm(.308).

  33. =February 1, 2012 6:27 AM I thought El Chapo Isidro is in Jail?? anyways the beltrans have proved themselves remeber the ambush in sonora, nayarit they had a support from los zetas... Since Beltran is the smaller Cartel they have to attack more aggresive and they have advantages they control less areas but they are well in control. remeber all those federals they killed in los mochis that came from Culiacan? they are no joke

  34. Y las anthrax? Ya tienen a la contra en casa,ontan nenas¿
