Autodefensas Ambushed: 7 Dead

According to spokespeople from the autodefensas of the Michoacán coast, autodefensa members from the community of Caleta de Campos were ambushed by a group of armed men allegedly belonging to the Caballeros Templarios.

The attack occurred around 3 p.m. this Wednesday, September 16, 2015, in a small village called La Manzanilla which is located between Caleta de Campos and the port of Lázaro Cárdenas.  The ambush ended with seven dead; four were presumed Caballero Templario members while three were autodefensa members.


The autodefensa groups in the area mobilized themselves after the ambush and are searching for the perpetrators of the attack; however, they announced that they don’t have the necessary weapons to confront the attackers.

“The army took away our high-powered weapons such as AK-47’s and AR-15 and left us with only shotguns, we can’t go up against grenades with our limited weaponry.  We are on the brink of extinction; we are being killed with the complicity of the government.” Josefa Contreras, autodefensa leader in the area, denounced.

The community claimed that the attack was announced on the evening of September 15 but failed to prevent it because “after Cemeí (sic) (Verdía Zepeda) was arrested, a lot of people who were with us went with the Templarios.”

“This is a desperate call, they are going to kill all of us who were with Cemeí (sic) by the orders of the government,” the autodefensa leader announced.


According to Por un Michoacan Libre SDR.’s Facebook page, a group of autodefensa members who belonged to the Policia Rural (Rural Police) were checking up on an anonymous denunciation which indicated a group of armed men in the community of Bejuco.  The armed group belonged to “500” aka “El Quinini”.  Upon arriving, the Rural Police were ambushed by a group of armed men.  Three of the criminals have been identified as Melvin Lorenzano Reyes, 27, "La Tortuga", Joel Epitacio "El Pita" and a criminal only identified as "Poninis”.  Three of the Rural Police members of Caleta de Campos and Chucutitan were severely wounded but later died as they were being transferred to get medical treatment.  They have been identified as Santos Preciado Chavez, 49, J. Cruz Anguiano, 41, and Ponciano Maldonado Farias, 34, who was the leader of the Rural Police in the community of Chucutitan.

    Morelia, Michoacán.- De los 74 autodefensas que fueron consignados a los ceresos Mil Cumbres y Francisco J. Múgica de Morelia, 8 de ellos seguirán su proceso en libertad tras habérseles fijado una fianza de 12 mil 600 pesos a cada uno, luego de haber obtenido el beneficio de la libertad bajo caución.
    Jonathan Savoy Méndez salió bajo fianza del Cereso Mil cumbres, en tanto que del centro penal Francisco J. Mújica fueron excarcelados Fabián Valencia Vargas, Francisco Méndez Gamiño y Ponciano Maldonado Farías.

    A little history. He was one of the ones arrested with the Doc last year.

  2. Am I reading this shit right ? The militia is having trouble because their guys are defecting an going with the "criminal" group . I'm starting to wonder why I was even interested and taking sides . THE "GOOD GUYS" defect and join the bad guys when the going gets tough ? Makes me wonder what the fight is really all about . There seems to be things I really must not comprehend . I guess "you just had to be there .
    Some of you smart guys fill me in . Are they just fighting aver control of the trafficking ? Everything we were led to understand the militia was about truth and justice . If both sides are into drug production fuck them all . There will be a day of reckoning .

    1. Drugs are everywhere, but that is not the issue...
      The problem is that the juersaz rurales are worse than the templarios, and that they are the state and federal government paramilitaries...
      --even if they are not even officially juersaz rurales anymore like simon el americano, who engaged Hipolito Mora who still WAS a juersaz rurales member in good standing, killed hipolito mora's son and his own followers, but got released free of charges in spite of videos and recordings of him egging his followers to "mandar a la verga" a hipolito mora, or in other military campaigns where he does the same, gets recorded and video taped saying the exact same strategic commands: mandenlos a la verga!!!
      --of course, the judges know who is guilty or not, and the people chose to go with the lesser evil, while we freely criticize them for free...

  3. The poor people of Michoacan have no hope. They are governed by a corrupt government, that really only protects criminals. The only way to stop this garbage is revolution by all Mexicans. Michoacan can't do it alone.

    4. There was the terror in the times of the french revolution when the rabble sent the monarchy to the guillotine...
      --What nobody says is the English cooked the french revolution in revenge for the french monarchy helping the Colonies War of Independence from england, or that the US helped england do it...
      --The guatemalans were making guillotines a few days ago and have put their presidente in jail, he had to "resign" he was GENERAL OTTO PEREZ MOLINA, a kaibil, and former preside t for life, senator and congressman Efrain Rios montt another former general is under arrest too for genocide, mass murder, crimes against humanity and for being muy feo, they just could not kill enough guatemalan indians...Rigoberta Menchu is happy dancing in her truck wide skirts, me too...

  6. The autodefensas are a REAL THREAT to the gravy train feeding the corrupt government through organized crime. Only the autodefensas can derail this gravy train and both the government officials and the organized crime leaders know this.

    Enemy #1 to the mexican government is the autodefensa movement and it MUST be destroyed!

    4. Chivis .. The post you read that you couldn't understand has some misspellings in it . I reposted to try and clarified what I was trying to say but that was: discarded also . I doubt this one will get on either if the intelligent person from 8:43 is involved does this person get to edit ? He or she sound more like the subject of this site rather than a writer . Very uncivilized .

      If we deleted comments because of misspelling, half would not make it, including many of mine. I am not into the grammar police thing.

      I still don't know what you are trying to say, meaning what the subject of your comment. I got up early to tackle the 150 comments left over before the new crop arrives. I promise you I really don't know what comments were yours. if you followed the rules, no personal attacks, and refraining from words used in bigotry etc then it may be I simply did not have the time to get to yours. Sorry. I will be back home next week and have a greater amount of time

    7. Dearest chivis, throw in the BB towel? Me? Why?
      I only make fun of complainers sometimes and of el mil mascaras for abusing them, not so often anymore because it is a waste of time, there is no reasoning that will work there, but if you post my comments or not, there are no hard feelings here because you are the BOSS...
      I am just grateful forALL the times I have been posted and I chose to not talk about the TABOOS, sometimes; imitators do not have what it takes...

  9. PROHIBITION IS DEATH! Mexico should ban alcohol so they can get some alcohol cartels to go with the drug cartels!

    1. Either way. Not prohibiting alcohol causes many "legal" deaths. Something worse would happen with not prohibiting illegal drugs. You want more sickos walking around us? You want more of that? How about more shit?? ... Cannabis not included!

    2. @7:16 checked your original "guns save lives" heart, great original heart...used for a bs comment, most mexicans do not have money to buy guns, but there are rocks and knives...
      --after grifa, people look for something "#better", some rapper high on PCP killed a friend's girlfriend and ate her lungs...but the paranoias that release drug addiction do not matter when a few dollars are there there...
      --Google: Antron Singleton aka Big Lurch or the Florida's face eating maniac...
      --Then keep pushing for legalization of drugs, for profit and impunity, including "medical mariguana" for perfectly healthy people...
