Power Struggle? Agua Prieta violence surge after Chapo's capture

Borderland Beat

AGUA PRIETA, SONORA, MEXICO

The first signs of a drug cartel power struggle might be appearing on the Mexican border after the arrest of Mexico's most wanted cartel leader.

It's happening in Agua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico, right across the border from the Arizona city of Douglas.

It was broad daylight Wednesday in Agua Prieta when hundreds of bullets blew holes through most everything in sight - trucks, windshields, walls, windows and suspected cartel henchmen inside those vehicles.

Afterward, federal police wearing commando gear poured into the streets of Agua Prieta.

It was the latest episode of gunfire in a border town that played an important role in the Mexican Revolution nearly 100 years ago.

Locals residents worry another revolution may be brewing now, the result of the recent arrest of Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, the head of the powerful Sinaloa drug cartel.

It controls the smuggling corridor in and around Agua Prieta.

Juan Carlos Olvera, a local journalist who captured the aftermath of the violence on video, told CBS 5 Investigates that gun battles have pitted two factions of the Sinaloa cartel against each other.

But his images show there was also collateral damage.

Bullets flew into this home while a family was sitting down for a meal, one wounding a 9-year-old girl, who is expected to recover.

Mexican police took four of the people involved in that gun battle into custody.

But they were still asking one question: Is this the first sign of a civil war within the drug cartel - now that its leader is gone?   (video plays satisfactorily in full screen mode)

 
Note:  Last night some of you readers wrote about POE closures in AP and San Luis.
has that been confirmed?  Thanks!

  15. Damn. I just trip on some of you dummies. This has nothing to do with chapo ' s arrest. It's really stimple. Los Paredes trying to hang on to their turf. This is Sinaloa trying to replace the old with the new. M100, Marco Antonio Paredes Machado lost control of his house. It's really sad because Paredes/Salazar kept the peace. (Don Adan) (Marco Paredes) Now that shit hole , AP, will be just like everywhere else in Mexico. I know these people. There is a huge history here. (Juarez cartel) The Paredes have been aligned with different times with different people over the years. (Beltranes) But I promise you, if M 100 got out, he would regain control. But if this keeps up, it will be so Caliente down there the area will a ghost town. After what happened to Mandy Moreno it is no surprise that this is happening. Remember, 20 and El Goyo used to be the Paredes' security. So if 20 is cleaning house this isn't good. Really bad news.

  16. One thing I wonder. IM also grateful because my entire family stays there. Is why San Luis rio Colorado is always so calm? When 2 hours east is sonoita where there's shootouts all the time and west Mexicali which is the same Shit. Cuervos and aLgodones are also constantly calm. It's great for anyone who is still looking to party down south and still feel safe.
    PS saludos a Los Macias, Gamez, Juarez, Villarreal, DE Los Gonzalez

    2. West Mexicali, es donde esta la periferia, donde llegan a vivir la mayoria de la gente de fuera, especificamente chinolas, de lo mas jodido, en esa parte de Mexicali se maneja mucho narcomenudeo por eso hay robos, asesinatos ajustes entre bandas de pushercillos poquiteros, polleros por eso los shootouts, ya la ley mejor los deja que se maten entre ellos, el resto de la ciudad es relativamente tranquila, Cuervos no es tan tranquilo lo que pasa es que tienen sus targets bien ubicados

  17. Chivis,

    What you are seeing is a battle for control that has been going on for a couple years. It's just finally coming to a head. They are trying to unseat the Paredes. Marcos is gone, doing time. He can't hold on from in there. El 20 killed Mandy Moreno. 20 is cleaning house. It's sad because Marcos Paredes and El Indio Salazar (Don Adan's son) really kept things peaceful. This will continue til the purge is complete. Settle in, this may take a while. These people were very close to me many years ago. It's sad. You don't have to publish this.

But Los paredes seems to always pull through these things. I heard Kadafi Roscon is on the M100 shit list. With Marcos gone everyone acting a fool.

  26. 2 families control Sonora Los Paredes (M100 ) and los Salazar (Don Adan).Both families work for CDS . Gente Nueve is the enforcer group and works for CDS specifically El Chapo. Macho Prieto and his people also controled a section of Sonora .Although Sonora is a CDS plaza there has always been infighting between the families /group that operate there . Paez, Jabalines, Saboris families have fought in the past. add to the mix Beltran Leyvas /Zetas .Sonora will become Armagedon.
