"HEARST" for Borderland Beat
A Sinaloa Cartel - Salazars figure named Camilo Sánchez was gunned down in San Luis Río Colorado, in the state of Sonora. Internet rumors allege that Sinaloa Cartel - Rusos were behind the hit.
Gunned Down in Their Car
At approximately 9:00 pm on October 8, 2022, the emergency phone line received a call reporting gunshots on 22nd Street, near the intersection with Quintana Roo Street in the border city of San Luis Río Colorado (often shortened to SLRC), Sonora.
A video which is alleged to depict the sound of these gunshots was later posted on social media in footage shown below.

Note: Some accounts allege this was a different shooting that occurred later that night in SLRC.
When officers arrived, they found a white SUV with visible bullet holes a little further down 22nd Street, near the intersection of Zacatecas B street.
After approaching, they found two men sitting in the front of the 2022 white Nissan Kicks SUV who had both been shot to death and no longer showed vital signs.
Warning: Graphic photos shown below.
Social media news account Sonora Informativo posted photos alleged to show the two men in the front of the vehicle. Newspaper El Imparcial posted blurred out versions of these same photos, seemingly confirming their authenticity.
El Imparcial says that both of the men were about 21 years old and offers no further information about their identities.
Reynosa Código Rojo, Sonora Informativo, and social media account Pedro967506833 claim that one of the men who died inside the vehicle was the Sinaloa Cartel - Salazars operator named Camilo Sánchez. They also posted a photo alleged to show Camilo Sánchez from Farandula, a social media account which posts photos of CDS members.
The Farandula photo posted by the three sources named above. |
Twitter account Calvarie Locus has claimed that one of the two men executed is “hermano del Panic”, or the brother of Panic, which is likely a cartel alias. After much searching, no information on who Panic is or any more details on Camilo Sánchez could be found but hopefully more information will emerge as time goes on.

There are two obvious motives for their execution. Either an internal power struggle within Los Salazars, the group that currently controls SLRC. Or a hit by Salazar’s rivals Los Rusos, who have been contesting them for control of SLRC, which is the motive that Pedro967506833 mentions in his tweet about the attack.

Previous Events in the Rusos vs Salazar War
Although it's likely not directly related to the Salazars vs Rusos war, the loss of Héctor Herrera, alias “El Tolín”, a lieutenant under P1, was a big hit for Rusos.
Again, not directly related but there was a major arrest (story linked here) of Chapitos leaders in Caborca. This included Memos figure Silvano, alias “El 25”, and Duranguillo’s brother David, alias “El Washo”.

ReplyDeleteAll rusos captured all Salazar killed
ReplyDeleteYep its ruso vs Salazar's wink wink aka mayos vs chapitos.
ReplyDeleteI thought the same thing 9:00!
ReplyDeleteMZ will definitely win this one, wisdom and experience trump everything else. Sadly a Bordertown war that will leave much trauma behind for its citizens
ReplyDeleteYeah another border town ruined and held hostage by criminals from Sinaloa.
Delete1:52 thew the good guys remember? (Sarcasm)
Delete9:10 how lame
Delete6;45 it's lame that you think that's lame.
DeleteBro, your pretty lame rooting for a lame cartel
CDS doesn’t hurt people or extort them, they are angelic drug traffickers not cannibals okay 👌🏽
DeleteThese other also have happened around SLRC

Yes. Great links.
DeleteI heard 2 rumors thru the grapevine from SLRC locals about the above article links posted at 3:24
DeleteThe first arrive the guy in the white truck with AZ plates waiting to cross the border was a US resident and he supposedly le puso dedo a alguien where some jale got hit or some foos arrested and the got him trying to escape to the US
The second guy in the gold truck was supposedly from rusos and he was messing around with one a member of Salazar’s wife
Again just hearsay
Glad he’s dead. You can tell by his pictures that he was a stuck up person up to no good. Typical hot head.
ReplyDeleteSeguramente se creía bien verga.
Parece que siempre estaba oliendo mierda
DeleteEl huicho is not zalazar. last ime I heard of this Garibay family, they were with chapitos...
ReplyDeleteThey been hopping from cartel to cartel for decades. First they were with cds, then CAF, later CJNG and lately chapitos. But who knows they might have jumped ship AGAIN..
Where ever they go they ain't safe, they made way to much enemies with all that hopping around
Weren't they first with CAF and then bounced to CDS because they had to "unjustly" pay for product that was lost on this side? That's what I remember reading in Zeta TJ
Delete9:51 you might be right. I know they bounced back to CAF and cds a couple of times. Most recent was chapitos but before it was cjng.
DeleteDid these guys try to sneak one last kiss before the end?
ReplyDeleteAwww poor little savages got what was coming....
ReplyDeleteSinaloa cartel taking L's. Internal beefs are bad for business.
ReplyDelete~ALMO nuthugger
Why can’t everybody get along like in the 90s and shit???? They had great cocaine methamphemtamine marijuana and real heroin back then with much less violence in Mexico…
ReplyDeleteRaton’s co-opted Salazars look to have been making out when they were dispatched.
