Mayo Zambada's Sicario Chief, "El Macho Prieto" Reported Killed

Chivis Martinez for Borderland  Beat
WE HAVE HIT OUR MAX FOR COMMENT SPACE FOR THIS POST, PLEASE COMMENT ON ANOTHER POST
 
(A big thanks to the reader who sent me the new video above, obviously it is the 2 that hit a wall reports spoke of.  I trimmed the video and slowed it down for better viewing.  Sure was a nasty hit, debris and bodies went flying, and the wall is demolished, it plays pretty well on full screen)

CONFIRMATION (12.19.13): The death of Gonzalo Inzunza Inzunza alias "El Macho Prieto" was confirmed this morning by the Secretary of State Security (SSPE) Daniel de la Rosa Anaya, who noted that Inzunza was among the five killed yesterday during the confrontation between federal agents and narcos, in the hotel zone of the resort destination of Puerto Peñasco (Rocky Point).

Post from 12.18.13:
Gonzalo Inzunza Inzunza-better known as "Macho Prieto", leader of sicarios for Sinaloa
cartel  Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, has died during fighting against federal forces in Puerto Peñasco.
The death of the alleged scicario has not been officially confirmed by the authorities, but local security sources consulted, confirmed the death. . Inzunza Inzunza is originally from Culiacan, capital of Sinaloa,  is accused of participating in more than 80 crimes (murders) in Sinaloa, including a dozen police officers.

The fallen sicario is known by "Macho Prieto" because of his dark skin color, and he  was feared by state and federal authorities because of the sophisticated weaponry he carried.
El Procurador de Jusrticia, Carlos Navarro revealed officers were maintaining a checkpoint  on a federal highway, outside of a hotel in Puerto Penasco, which is located in a tourist area known as Sandy Beach.
 
 
 

Unofficially, it was learned that federal agents, after engaging the armed group, shot ammunitions from aboard a helicopter, killing the sicario and four others. (e; Debate reports the shootout continued for tow hours and 6 were killed)
 
The officers had ordered the convoy of three luxury motor units to stop. These units attempted to flee  and the confrontation occurred. The conflict at the scene left two dead gunmen. Two more were killed when they tried to flee, causing a vehicle impact against the wall of a building, and another at the hospital..
 
No casualties were reported of federal agents.
 
Gonzalo Inzunza had been placed on the Kingpin List   by the Treasury Department in 2011 together with Manuel Torres Felix.  At that time, the United States placed both characters as major traffickers in Sinaloa cartel structure. In Sinaloa, Macho Prieto is attributed dozens of deaths.

The following was part of the announcement by the Obama administration at the time;

“Today’s designation marks another step in OFAC’s efforts to specifically target the narcotics traffickers responsible for the horrific acts of violence committed along the Arizona border with Mexico,” said OFAC Director Adam J. Szubin.  “We will continue to work alongside our partners in Federal law enforcement as well as the Mexican government to financially cripple and dismantle the Sinaloa Cartel.”
The eight individuals designated today work on behalf of Joaquin “Chapo” Guzman Loera, and Ismael “Mayo” Zambada Garcia, the leaders of the Sinaloa Cartel, and Gonzalo Inzunza Inzunza “Macho Prieto”, a top lieutenant of the Sinaloa Cartel.  Mexican authorities have previously arrested Jesus Alfredo Salazar Ramirez, Ramon Ignacio Paez Soto, and Raul Sabori Cisneros. 

The American consulate tweeted a warning to all Americans in PP to take cover inside.

In first video you can hear the shootout, shot by Americans in a hotel.  It begins at 1:50.  You can hear some of their comments about a shot sounding like it came from a 50 cal.

  3. I can't confirm, but it seems likely he is dead. For sure there was a violent clash that lasted from 6AM to 8AM and 5-6 people dead, how many injured not reported, but there must be injuries.

    the big question ...is it him. I think probably so, that's the best I can do.

  4. There is still helicopters and shootouts being heard. Either he's dead and his people are fighting back. Or they're still trying to capture him and he's not giving up.

      Now Amado's children are getting killed and arrested because daddy,did not leave them money to escape the life.
      By the way,who got the money of the fallen drug lords? I know "El Senor de los Cielos Air" changed its name to TAESA,and acf became afo,and jorge hank rohn was the big boss,but what happened to the money Amado Carrillo Fuentes made?

Fuentes cercanas a la policía nos han informado que el famoso narcotraficante miembro del cartel de “El Chapo”Guzmán se encuentra cercado en las instalaciones del Hotel Bella Sirena de este destino turístico, pero que cuenta con un numeroso grupo de rehenes.

  63. People in peñasco said that doctors were taken at gunpoint by the sicarios and taken to an unkown location. They were later released. Ppl are told not to leave their homes because they can be hiding anywhere. So I honestly thinkbthey were after him and he got away. People r still saying the helicopters and authorities are everywhere looking. Obviously this isn't over.

  68. Does anyone else somehow connects this to R5 death? The girl that was with R5 is Karely Inzunza most likely related to MP. One can only speculate.

    "Another man may have been killed by the suspects Tuesday night, triggering the confrontation."

    Stephen Heisler, 47, said he was awakened about 4:45 by the sound of a helicopter outside.

    "We weren't sure what the heck was going on. I heard the gunfire," said Heisler, who lives with his wife and two small children two buildings from Bella Sirena, the resort condo tower where the gunbattle occurred. "It was pretty intense stuff. And we didn't know if the helicopter was friend or foe – we could see it shooting – so we took cover.

    "If you can imagine the U.S. Marines coming out for an incident in Los Angeles, that's what happened here. It was a war zone."

  70. This link has a video with some still photographs from PP of a truck riddled with bullet holes... plus it shows some photos of damage at the resort the Bella Sirena condos... lots of bullet holes in outside walls and the front door of one of the condos.

    There were reports of the helicopter firing into the resort... so the photos are the evidence of that.

    Also, two men were killed in the shooting and two others died after they fled in a pickup truck, then hit a concrete barrier and were thrown from the car. The fifth one died later from injuries.

    There is a good video with this report... with more pictures of the shot up pickup truck and the villa with many, many bullet holes. another video from this website with Manuel Marizco is also good... he acknowledges that "a Sinaloa strong arm" was in the villa and was killed. He also said this might be related to the death of a "Sinaloa enforcer" (r5) in Hermosillo 10 days ago.

    The article below says this was a military operation that was planned... so it did not happen as part of a checkpoint I guess.

    By Dennis Wagner, Brandon Loomis and Bob Ortega

    An hours-long gun battle that pitted criminal suspects against Mexico’s federal police and military Wednesday morning in the popular resort known as Rocky Point left five of the suspects dead and many residents and tourists shaken.

    “If you can imagine the U.S. Marines coming out for an incident in Los Angeles, that’s what happened here,” said Stephen Heisler, 47, an American journalist.

    “It was a war zone,” added Heisler, who lives with his wife and two small children two buildings from Bella Sirena, the resort complex on Sandy Beach where the gunbattle occurred.

    Official details of the shootout were sketchy, but a tourism spokeswoman for Rocky Point, also known as Puerto Peñasco, said that several additional suspects were wounded and that a U.S. citizen was carjacked but not hurt.

    “This was a federal police operation, not a state operation,” said Carlos Navarro Sugich, Sonora’s attorney general, “so I don’t have a lot of information to share.”

    He confirmed that state police helicopters were used in the operation.

    Four of the suspects were killed in the initial confrontation and a fifth died later, he said. .......

    Residents near Bella Sirena indicated that they began hearing detonations of high-powered weapons shortly before 5a.m. Wednesday, as well as aircraft overhead.

    Heisler said he was awakened by the sound of a helicopter just outside.

    “We weren’t sure what the heck was going on,” he said. “I heard the gunfire. It was pretty intense stuff. And we didn’t know if the helicopter was friend or foe — we could see it shooting — so we took cover.”

    Heisler said the shooting lasted nearly four hours, until around 9 a.m. Early on, he could see tracer rounds flying out of the chopper, which was getting return fire from the villa at Bella Sirena.

    “That’s what scared the hell out of me, the tracers,” he said. “The people in the villa are firing at the chopper. And the helicopter is literally hovering right outside my window, hiding behind my building, dodging in and out. It was a goddamned war zone.”

    As of Wednesday afternoon, he said, residents were still pretty much in lockdown, not allowed to leave the area, which remained filled with police and military. “No one’s going or coming from the buildings at all,” he said. “The beach is absolutely empty.”

    Rosie Glover, tourism-assistance coordinator for Rocky Point, said Mayor Gerardo Figueroa Zazueta and Sugich, the state prosecutor, held a news conference Wednesday afternoon to tell the public all was secure.

    She said they also announced the additional wounded, and the carjacking of an American by someone “desperate to make a getaway.”

    In a news release, Figueroa Zazueta said the shootout erupted from “a military operation specifically targeting those involved in organized crime who, unfortunately, resisted arrest.”

    “The situation is now under control,” the mayor said.

    “The residents of Puerto Peñasco can relax. ... Tourists living in or visiting the area should feel safe and take comfort in the fact that three levels of law enforcement came together to smother criminal activity, leaving only five dead ... all of them presumed delinquent at this time.”

  73. Some more new info from Wikipedia...

    "Inzunza Inzunza was reportedly killed in a gunfight with Mexican Marines in Puerto Peñasco, Sonora, on 18 December 2013.[11] The Sonora authorities confirmed that the shootout, which occurred at around 04:00 A.M. that day, left a total of five dead and three vehicles incinerated.[12] Authorities confirmed that two gunmen were killed on the scene during the firefight, while two others died by wrecking their vehicle while attempting to flee the crime scene; the remaining gunman died of gunshot wound complications.[13] Preliminary reports stated that gunmen held several hostages at a hotel during the raging gunfire, but the Sonora authorities denied the authenticity of these initial reports.[14] The shootout was reported to have lasted at least four-hours. An eye-witness close to the crime scene said to the press that a police helicopter was involved in the fire exchange from mid-air with the gunmen, who fired at the chopper from the ground.[15]
    According to police reports, the incident began when the Mexican authorities chased a white Chevrolet pick-up truck in Sonoyta, Sonora following a reported homicide; the police later caught up to the vehicle in Puerto Peñasco after the men in the vehicle opened fire at them.[16][17] Following the shootout, the local authorities ordered the school district of Puerto Peñasco to suspend classes for the day.[18] The U.S. Consulate in Nogales, Sonora, emitted a travel warning through Twitter advising U.S. tourists to stay indoors until the gunfire was over.[19] Puerto Peñasco (known in English as "Rocky Point") is Sonora's major tourist attraction a major tourist destination for U.S. citizens given its 50 mi (80.4 km) proximity from the U.S.-Mexico border.[14]"

  88. The death of Gonzalo Inzunza Inzunza alias "El Macho Prieto" was confirmed this morning by the Secretary of State Security (SSPE) Daniel de la Rosa Anaya, who noted that Inzunza was among the five killed yesterday during the confrontation between federal agents and narcos, in the hotel zone of the resort destination of Puerto Peñasco (Rocky Point).

  89. Readers:
    When you send me tips or fotos, and many did for this story both via comments and email, please indicate if it is ok to use your first name to thank and credit.

    We need readers to bring breaking news and information. You guys are the best. I admit I was a little leery because no blog no national media had posted the story when we did at 1:30, so I wasn't sure. But you were persistant.

    Turns out the fotos are genuine for this story. and I did an image check on those sent to me today and all were originals with no history of being used, ever. I selected these to post as I thought they were the best sorry I could not post them all.

    this story had legs, it was on all 3 network news in SoCal and Also Az. Rarely does that happen on English news...

    thanks again..

  90. if you click on the image of the two dead guys neither is Macho, so there is the 2 guys who smash into a wall and the dead guy at the hospital. I heard he was the one at the hospital.

    I also heard the car hit another car so there must be injuries. there is no way a 2 hours conflict did not have more deaths and many injuries. I also read on I think riodoce that the number is really up to 15 dead,

    Question: what type of gun is with the dead guy in the sand? I don't know weapons, but the barrel is very wide.

    and in the video, the sounds of some of the percussion sounded which had a cannon sound. Is that a 50 cal? I know we have ex militars and experts following us that would know. 50 cal are becoming more common place

  117. The U.S. has details on all the cartel big wigs. Why else do you think they caught Z40. The cartels might be able to mangle with the people and perhaps kill a few federales but they wont beat a predator drone no matter how big of a gun they have. Hell they could have as many anti-aircraft guns as they want and a couple tanks but you can't see or hear a predator drone. Its like the hand of god coming out of no where and blowing everything to pieces.

  128. The word on the street is that R-5 was killed by Macho Prieto's command because of internal differences between them also MP was called upon several times by the big heads which he never showed up causing the big heads to give his location, R-5's death did it though and MP's body was taken by other gunmen obviously to take to the main bosses to confirm his death but since the military or feds dont have his body they will say that it's somewhat not confirmed even after they let the gunmen take his body because this operation was an order from the BOSSES high above.

  131. I watched the entire event. Macho Prieto is dead. I watched as they carried him from the Villa into a waiting van. I videoed them loading Prieto into the van and driving away while they shot cover fire back at the Villa but the government forces were not even pursuing them. 2 bodyguards carried him and there was a driver and another bodyguard was providing cover from the front of the Villa. 5 were in the van as they tried to flee the resort. There was a large gun battle at the front of the resort that I could not see but heard.

    3 trucks - 1 armored had come to rescue him. I heard the shouting between the cartel members. On said, "Uncle, are you ok?" Macho Prieto yelled back, "I'm injured". Another assault occurred on the villa. The assault began around 5:20AM and ended around 8:30 AM. There were 2 Blackhawk Helicopters and later 2 airplanes. I watched a air to ground battle around 5:50 am that occurred and tracer bullets could be seen skipping off the payment back up into the air. I have clear video footage of this as well.
