Mexican cartel allied groups which fought each other and Mexican security forces, and died since Saturday, include such groups as the Beltran-Leyva, the Sinaloa and the Los Zetas drug cartels, according to Mexican news accounts.

In a Thursday posting at its website, Vangardia news daily reported unnamed sources saying that the groups which were in the general area of Choix since Saturday include Los Mazatlecos, Los Chapos Isidro Norte, Los Pequeños and Los Zetas, led by Fausto Isidro Meza Flores AKA El Chapo Isidro, against a Sinaloa group called Gente Nueva.

Also included, not surprisingly was an armed group led by a Juarez Cartel operative identified as José Luis Ledezma, AKA El JL, leader of Los Aztecas.  The Juarez Cartel makes use of remote mountain communities in far western Chihuahua state ro grow some of the drugs it smuggles into the US.  La Linea, the Juarez cartel's enforcement wing also operated in remote Chihuahua state communities such as Madero, where quantities of Tovex, a commercial grade dynamite was found just after the July, 2010 car bomb in Juarez city.

Prior reports said that two groups had exchanged gunfire initially in Choix municipality, also wound up fighting Mexican Army and Sinaloa state police agents, and have been since then until Wednesday.

The Vangardia report also said that Mexican Army troops have moved further into eastern Choix to make arrests of cartel shooters involved in the fighting since last Saturday.

The total dead state wide, by this author's account, include 54 gang and cartel affiliated shooters, the latest being in Guasave where 11 armed suspects and two Mexican soldiers were killed early Wednesday morning.

Speaking of the firefight in Guasave, Vangardia said that the Mexican Secretaria de Defensa Nacional, the controlling agency for the Mexican Army, reported large amounts of munitions seized including 31 rifles, 12 handguns, 5,291 rounds of ammunition. 121 weapons magazines, hand grenades and homemade explosive devices.  These munitions lists probably also include quantities seized in Choix municipality since last Saturday.

In a Thursday evening post on its website, Noreste news daily reported that 11 armed suspects were killed in the firefight between armed suspects and a Mexican Army road patrol at the Hotel Macurín.  Seven suspects died in separate hotel rooms, while two more died attempting to flee the fire zone.  Two more died in the court yard of the hotel.

The report also said that 30 local schools were closed down during the two  hour long firefight.

Contraband seized in the aftermath of the firefight include 28 rifles and pistols (including two 0.50 caliber Barrett rifles), four vehicles including one armored Jeep Cherokee SUV and  1,600 rounds of ammunition.

According to a post on its website Thursday evening El Debate news daily listed nine of the 11 armed suspects killed in Guasave:  Luis Enrique Leon Leyva, José Alberto Rocha Fonseca, Juvenal Parez Encino, Carlos Daniel Velazquez Terraza, Oscar Manuel Montoya Lopez, Omar Adrian Montoya Rubio, Luis Saenz, Jesus Gamez and José Leonardo Lopez Murillo.

In a story posted on its website Thursday Grupo Formula radio said that at least one church, Catedral de Nuestra Señora del Rosario in Culican, the capital of Sinaloa has been vandalized by cartel operatives.  The report also said a Catholic priest was stabbed at a Catholic school last week and is in serious condition.

On the website of La Tarde news daily Thursday evening, it was reported that a total of 23 dead had been found in several municipalities of Sinaloa.  It is unclear in that report how many are included in the total death toll of 56.

In Culiacan, 10 were reported dead, four in Salvador Alvarado, three in Ahome, two each in San Ignacio and El Fuerte, and one each in Navolato and Mocorito.

  1. Guzman started this in Nuevo Laredo years ago and baited Lazcano last month. Guzman, you disrespected the code years ago in Juarez. Guzman, your own people should take you out. You wanted a war and now you have it in your own plaza. Lazcano, you can't control your cells. You disrespected the code and violated the Mexican people. Padrino would never disrespect the code, even Carillo knew better and his hands were on the border. You're an insurgency.

  3. El JL is not leader of the aztecas. He's the number three guy of the juarez cartel with some saying he's the number two boss of the juarez cartel just under Vicente Carrillo Fuentes.

  4. JL? so he is not dead

  5. Was it initially Sinaloa (CDS) who came to Choix to attack the rivals, and clear the territory? And the Juarez/Zeta backed those led by Chapo Isidro? The whole thing is a bloody, confusing, fascinating mess. A modern day western.

    ReplyDelete
  6. That's another thing, after years, out of nowhere El JL is leading sicario teams in the hills of Sinaloa, with Juarez in shambles, and his group seen as on it's last legs, now he comes back? or not?

  7. Chapo Isidro sent a group from Chihuahua over the Sierra to a rancho in Choix that is the base of operations for CDS plaza boss Adelmo "EL Lemo Nuñez in order to kill Lemo in retaliation for the attack at Las Glorias the Thursday before Good Friday.

    Isidro sent cloned federal and state police vehicles, but he was met with a fierce attack from Lemo that scattered his fighters into the sierra, and when the army arrived they seized several of the cloned police vehicles.

    The temperature on the Chihuahua side of the sierra was 114 yesterday and there's no water. The locals are all support staff for plantations supplying CDS. These fighters are tired, thirsty, hungry, and not welcome.

    3. Parece que no conoces al 40 imbécil. Desde que era el lavacarros del Arturo nunca valió madre. Nadamas ustedes que andan de caliente por que la 40 al igual que la Talibana a la hora de los pelotazos se esconden todos jotos y ustedes son los que se mueren. Nomas por que la niña anda en bola por que sólo mano a mano nunca la ha hecho, si no preguntaselo a Marta Porras y su hermano. Hubiera agarrado los 15 melones, asi de perdido su hermana no las anduviera dando por un 20 aqui en el rancho. Al rato el pendejo se va a quedar sin nada, ni feria ni plaza. Te lo digo por que se, cuando andan en sus pedos escondidos la hermana de la 40 y la jefa del Taliban que se llama Teresa Caballero se la pasan en el Holliday Inn con nosotros. Puro Sinaloa pendejo.

CDG They were once a part of the dirty Zetas and the only thing CDS helps them with is give them weapons and drugs that's all they have to do with them. Other than that CDS doesn't need anyone unlike ZETAS, Juarez, Beltran, Tijuana you guys are weak. United and still can't control.

  17. Too many cartel/narco/sicario fans posting pure bullshit on here! I could give a rat's ass, on who has gained the upper hand or who is winning or losing among the DTO's! It doesn't matter because the real "loser" in all of this is Mexico!!! Mexico is an unstable country and it's not right!! Nobody (Mexicans) should support or approve of anything the DTO's are doing..regardless of Mexico's social or economical state because Mexico is losing investors, tourism, and the overall "proud image" of a beautiful country!! For what! So, low life criminals and Mexican elite officials can turn a profit, while it's the common man, who loses everything.

  21. This is all great headlining news?
    Los M,Isidro,JL,Z,BLO,CDS/GN,great.But,why would JL,in person be leading an attack?From what you hear and makes sense,Los M,go looking to ambush the CDS crew there,end up bangin on each other,and bring heat,the two crews are now shooting at each other and soldiers.Then it just got bigger as more crew were sent for,don't forget,both sides could have got men in there.I think we all knew who would most likely be involved,given the area and shit like that.The main men who were there,are long gone by now.Just have to wait and see the outcome and any faces.

  22. When the army and marines attack the cartels scurry like cockroaches!
    Why do you think the cartels only prey on the average mexican and not carlos slim and the other super wealthy, cause they know they will get squashed by the army and marines.
    The cartels and the super rich in wealthy both prey on the average mexican.
    Also, the cartels are useful to the super rich as they kill all the leftists that threaten the super rich, thus allowed to survive.

    Have you not realized by now,that this is Mexican culture.You cannot get anywhere against their antagonism against the"gringo"So you may as well talk to a wall.All anyone can do is comment,look on as this madness continues,and if you are a"gringo"that gives you even less reason to comment or have an opinion.It is always seen as being derogatory whenever you say anything."Fix your your own country gringo"this is one reason why this aint ending anytime soon.This has been bubbling under the surface for many years,and now it is unleashed.
    No one else is to blame for this lunacy.Most Mexicans embrace this bullshit,cartel hero worship,when they don't even know these rats who are ruining Mexico.They all need exterminating with extreme prejudice,but that is not going to happen until the majority of the Mexican people get completely fed up with these clowns.As you say it is most definitely costing Mexico in a big way.

  29. I do think this has definitely got something to do with the shit Guzman pulled.He baited the Z two times with the cut up bodies and messages.I actually found it hard to believe that Guzman sanctioned that shit.Now shit is goin on in Nvo Laredo,i always think CDG is in all this as well.They still got a lot of people and plazas and hate the Z with a vengeance,and they definitely got something goin on with CDS.
    SOME OF THESE BOSSES NEED KILLING PRONTO.If they want to stop some of this shit,some,because this aint goin away anytime soon.

  37. what oil producing countries are to the USA, Sinaloa is to the mainstream Mexican politico system.

    Operators come & go, alas the cash cow stays.

    The oil well will not be crushed by any other oil well wannabe, being a trade zone corridor 'owner' does not make you a main supplier. There has to be another oil producing region rich or richer as the original one, and so far there isn't another one.
    So, keep theorizing about who's who and entertain yourselves with adventure filled theories, as the great Led Zepp sang, The song Remains the same.

  39. The Cartels need to stop the killings on both sides. They are ruining Mexico. Eventually there won't be a Mexico left. The drugs are destroying the human genome. DNA is being rewritten. Mental and physical disabilities are way up in offspring. The affects are spreading rapidly with each new generation. It will eventually create a global pandemic. Find a new business before you destroy humanity completely!
