Reynosa Wakes to Narco Blockades After Capture of Regional Metros Officer

By "El Huaso" for Borderland Beat

Early this morning, members of Los Metros were highly active across Reynosa, burning tires in roadways, deploying tire spikes, destroying government security cameras, and setting fire to a tire repair shop, in response to a government operation which captured a regional boss.

The attacks began early in the morning, with videos showing burning tires in roads and destroyed security cameras across the city. The highway to Monterrey was blockaded in at least three points with burning vehicles. Some social media users reported that armed individuals stole cars from several citizens to use them in the roadblocks. Locals also reported encountering tire spikes. Criminals also torched a tire repair shop owned by Marco Gallegos Galván, the President of the Congressional Public Safety Committee of Reynosa. 


There were reports of confrontations between security forces and criminals, but no casualties have yet been reported. Government forces regained control of the situation quickly, with most violence ending around 8:00 a.m. 


The Tamaulipas State government has confirmed the violence was the result of an arrest of a criminal figure, with news media identifying the captured target as Alexander Benavides Flores alias "Metro 9", a Metros officer in Reynosa behind several recent narco banners threatening the government.


The March 2026 Narcobanners

In March 2026, Metro 9 signed several narco banners around Reynosa, as reported by Borderland Beat. The banners threatened the local government's initiative to install security cameras around Reynosa, and stated that they would destroy any cameras they find. The message was signed by "Jefe Metro 9".


The messages stated: "Every post you put up is a post we will take down, let's see who gets tired first. Sincerely, Jefe Metro 9"

    4. 6:03 You can't be that stupid! If it wasn't for consumer demand in the U.S. there would be no narcos. If it wasn't for the imperialist U.S. methods there wouldn't be so many poor in Mexico willing to venture into drug trafficking. That at the beginning. Before this cartel problem morphed. Combined that with the unwillingness for the U.S. to stem the weapons flow south, Those weapons are what kill Mexicans. If that weapons flow was cut off, less mexicans would die. It would be easier for the government to take on the cartels and they would be less powerful and less dangerous. Everyone that uses drugs in the U.S. does it on their own free will. They choose to seek out that drug dealer, pay for that drug from their own pocket, and use it voluntarily. I no of no one who voluntarily wants to get shot and killed, in Mexico or anywhere else. If that purchase of drug consumers were to stop, that would be the end of cartels as we know it, especially with them having a hard time acquiring weapons. All that just blaming the narcos is stupid. Attack and arrest cartels all you want, drugs will still be sold in the U.S. but if everyone stopped purchasing drugs, drug trafficking would cease to exist.

    5. 11:13 you may want to know that most US drug addicts get induced and enticed by their own little friends who have been victims of their own little friends, if addicts could sue their corruptors for all they got, that would lead to some vert high upper levels of society and business and politics, like Jeffrey Epstein, now we know about the Male Models at abercrombie & fitch and congress pages, and airport stalls republicans.

    2. 1:15 believe it or not, your "special farces" are WORSE than mexican criminals, there was a time when México allowed american refugees to settle in Mexican territory, and they followed with complaints about mexicans to "their government conspirers" to steal more than half of the mexican territory from tejas to california, and are now trying hard to steal at least another 90% of what is left, as a colony only, because there are too many mexican voters that would pollute the voting rolls and would require extensive extermination to prevent.
      There was a time when it was considered but killing 6 million indians to cleanse Mexico was not a viable political option and there was no Hitler available,
      ("that motherfucker didn't give a fuck!" Kat Williams.)
      On the news: Julian LeBaron talking about his Big Fat Ass suffering and martyrdom and sacrifice because inrredent mexican criminals harassment in Chihuahua, but he didn't complain about his PRI member brother/ federal congressman and their robbery of all the water for themselves, he demands Mexico to allow Special Forces to help fight crime, and staging narco laboratory camps with CIA help looks like a good option.

    3. Maybe you should stop playing call of duty and worried about the war in Iran. Go enlist to fight an illegal war if you want to use a rifle(white man's penis). Nuff said.

      One more thing. If you really want to stop the cartels. Maybe help Americans to stop getting addicted to there products. Gun control will also weaken the cartels fire power but Maga Republicans won't do that because their bought by corporate that funds there campaign.

    4. 3:06 if it wasn't for mexican criminals and drug traffickers, tejas would be deader than the Nazi Desert Rats and florida too but they are rich thanks to Fidel Castro's s help with the cocaine trafficking to the US, poor fidel was even forced to sacrifice cuban air force general hero of the cuban revolution and the Battle for Angola Arnaldo Ochoa who pled guilty LIKE A MAN to save the Cuban Revolution, and before Fidel was selected for the CIA drug trafficking team, he had to prove his loyalty by helping set up Che Guevara in Bolivia for felix ismael rodriguez mendigutia to assassinate, he had pablo escobar and carlos lehder ready working with Klaus Barbie.

    Also, U.S. State Dept just put out a No Travel Alert (level 4) to avoid Reynosa.
