According to the State Attorney, Vazquez Garza is also responsible for the murder of two men in the San Bernabé and a table dancer dancer who was abducted in Progreso.

Furthermore, the accused gave information on other members of the criminal organization, already wanted by the state police and the attorney.

The two detainees were taken to the arraignment house to be  further investigated for thirty days while the states attorney fully expects to procure a case and conviction against him.An unnamed Mexican official told CNN that Vasquez belonged to the powerful Gulf Cartel, which has been waging a deadly turf war against the rival Zetas cartel.
