This afternoon, a member of the Secretariat of National Defense (SEDENA) was shot at inside his truck at the intersection of Búho and Quetzal streets, in the Parques de las Aves neighborhood in Zapopan. According to unofficial information, the victim is a lieutenant of the Mexican Army.

The military officer was driving his truck when he was attacked by gunshot wounds by a person on a motorcycle. The military officer was shot in the head and was taken in serious condition to the Cruz Verde Niña Eva, located in Carretera a Colotlán, in Zapopan, to be later admitted to a SEDENA hospital.

The victim was on his day off when he was attacked. The causes of the attack and the whereabouts of the alleged perpetrator are unknown at this time. After being shot in the head, the soldier lost control of his truck and crashed into a retaining wall. Zapopan police officers arrived at the scene and cordoned off the area while awaiting the arrival of the Public Prosecutor's Office agents, who are already conducting the corresponding investigations to clarify the facts.

On October 31, members of the Mexican Army and the National Guard arrested Armando 'N', known as 'Delta 1' or 'Maximo', who is said to be the third in command of the Jalisco Cartel - New Generation (CJNG) in the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area, as well as the person responsible for the expansion of the criminal group in Michoacan.

Delta 1' was arrested in a non-violent operation in the Lagos del Country neighborhood in Zapopan. He controlled criminal operations in the federal prison of Puente Grande, where he coordinated a group of hitmen known as 'Los Deltas', a violent group involved in murders, kidnappings and extortion in Jalisco and other states in the country, reported SEDENA.


Armando 'N' was arrested in 2020, but was released without any explanation from the authorities. In addition to allegedly leading the group of hitmen, this time he is accused of being responsible for the operation of some money laundering businesses for the CJNG.

OCTOBER 29, 2024


Armando Gómez Núñez, alias “Delta 1” or 'Máximo', alleged leader of the Los Deltas group of assassins, whose direct boss was Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, “El Mencho”, leader of the so-called Jalisco Cartel - New Generation (CJNG), was arrested at around 5:03 p.m. on October 28, 2024, by members of the National Guard (GN), at the intersection of Patria Avenue and Lago Superior Street, in the Lagos del Country neighborhood, in the municipality of Zapopoba, municipality of Zapopan: 03 hours on October 28, 2024, by elements of the National Guard (GN), at the intersection of Patria Avenue and Lago Superior Street, in the Lagos del Country neighborhood, in the municipality of Zapopan, Jalisco.

According to the National Detention Registry (RND) of the Secretariat of Security and Citizen Protection (SSPC), Gómez Núñez - allegedly the CJNG's operational leader in Guadalajara - was arrested in the company of a woman, identified as his alleged romantic partner.

At the time of his capture, 'Delta 1′ was wearing blue jeans, white tennis shoes and a black short-sleeved shirt. After his arrest, he was handed over to the authorities of the Special Prosecutor's Office for Organized Crime (FEMDO) and the Special Prosecutor's Office for the Investigation of Crimes against Health (FEIDCS) of the Attorney General's Office.

Delta 1′ had already been arrested on June 21, 2020, one kilometer away, on Manuel de Mimbela Street, near Enrique Díaz de León Avenue, in the Jardines del Country neighborhood of the same municipality in Jalisco. On that occasion, it was secured after a search, in which elements of the Attorney General's Office, the National Defense Secretariat (SEDENA), the National Guard and the National Intelligence Center (CNI) participated.

Two long rifle-type weapons, one short weapon, two magazines, 16 cartridges, seven cell phones and 519,000 rounds of ammunition were seized. Also seized were 519.9 grams of cocaine - distributed in 304 wrappers - as well as a plastic bag and a rectangular wrapper. In addition to two vehicles, various electronic items and cash, the amount of which was not disclosed.

Days later, the alleged head of Los Deltas' hitmen was presented before a control judge of the Federal Criminal Justice Center in the state of Jalisco, who ordered him to stand trial for his alleged responsibility in crimes against health, for commercial purposes, possession of firearms and cartridges for weapons for the exclusive use of the Armed Forces.
In addition, the federal judge granted the Attorney General's Office a three-month term for the complementary investigation of the case and ordered “Delta 1” to be remanded in custody at the Preventive Prison Commissariat in Puente Grande, Jalisco.

However, the head of the hitmen - who is also allegedly led by Francisco Javier Gudiño Haro, alias “La Gallina” - was released from prison under unknown circumstances and on unknown dates. This despite the fact that he was pointed out as the author of attacks such as the one perpetrated on May 21, 2018, against Luis Carlos Nájera Gutiérrez de Velasco, then head of the state Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare, as well as former head of the Jalisco State Prosecutor's Office.

Gómez Núñez was the successor of Martín Arzola Ortega, alias 'El 53' or 'El Negro', head of the group of hitmen called 'Los Deltas', killed on August 1, 2019, in a shooting that took place inside the Carl's Jr. restaurant, located inside Plaza Galerías, in the municipality of Zapopan.
