| Rurale with head injury |
Yesterday morning (Tue. June 16), at about 1:AM two members of the Forces Rurales and 5 civilians were killed in an ambush near Apatzingan. Five members of the Rurales were injured in the attack, one in an injury to the head and according to unofficial reports had brain matter showing but was still alive after being transported along with the other injured to hospitals in Apatzingan, about 30 minutes from the site of the attack.
The reports from different media give some conflicting details, but the above seems to be a brief consensus of the basic facts of the attack. Some report there were 6 killed. Some report that there is a missing policeman, some say there are 2 missing.
OEO reported that a call for assistance from the survivors was not made until about 8:AM even though the attack started about 1AM, because the area was so remote that there was no telephone signal available.
"It is noteworthy that after the police realized they were exceeded in number by criminals, many hid in the bush and weeds, until dawn when they could go to a place where communication was possible because the a good signal does not exist in the place of the attack."
The Rurales had been tasked with escorting some trucks that were "decommissioning" or dismantling the Fortaleza de Anunaki which was the home, playground and meeting place of Caballeros leader Nazario “El Chayo” Moreno González and boasted rodeo grounds with capacity for 1,000 people, a casino and cockfighting ring.
As the trucks left the Anunaki, the small caravan of trucks carrying scrap metal from the dismantling of facilities at the ranch, and the two police vehicle escorts were attacked about 1 kilometer from the entrance to the ranch.
Two of the civilians killed were drivers of the big trucks carrying the scrap metal. Two other civilians were killed who most reports indicate were in a Nissan "cleated" truck that was just passing by on the highway when the ambush took place. Their bodies were found in their truck which also had been incinerated.
As soon as they received the call for help to the area elements of the Federal Police as well as the Mexican Army moved to the area, and "combed" the area for the attackers, but needless to say that since it was 8 hours after the ambush, they found nothing. It is thought that some of the attackers may have been wounded and were "hospitalized" in the rugged surrounding mountains.
Information has been slow coming out of the area due to its remoteness, but at this time there were no updates on the condition of the injured police. There is speculation that the attackers were remnants of the Knights Templar.
The Mayor of Apatzingan said there had been no violence in the city resulting from the attack (maybe because there is a heavy presence of federal police and military already there). But the Governor last night ordered increased patrols in the rural areas around Apatzingan.

Just when you thought the Templarios were dismantled hahaha
ReplyDeleteHeard that
DeleteAny security group traveling in remote areas should be provided with satellite phones with a reliable sat carrier. Where this is not available, larger support teams should be assigned.
ReplyDeleteAstonishingly enough, Oakland's police department has had the same issues, with their officers unable to communicate with dispatch or anyone else on that wavelength because their system doesn't have the coverage needed to allow officers freedom of communication.
DeleteRather disconcerting for the men and women patroling the streets of one of the most dangerous cities in the nation.
Neighborhoods that have been targeted for gentrification do not get help, nor police or fire stations until the powers that be decide it was enough, they also plant drugs, guns, gangs and ho's all over, to de-populate the real estate, that is how they "move business"...
DeleteYeah my girlfriend is from apatzingan and she told me it happened in el Alcalde close to apatzingan, fuckers didnt know what hit them haha
ReplyDeleteYup, really funny, unless your one of the innocent truck drivers or the occupants of the Nissan, or their families or friends.....fucking hilarious
DeleteSo pleased the deaths of the civilians provide you with entertainment value.
Delete7:59 yeah, le cortaron el cable al hijo de la chingada, ahora se divierte con muertos en el internet
DeleteDoes.anyone know anything about shootout in la piedad mich were they CT or cjng ? Also any word on el broly ? Thanks
ReplyDeletewhy is that funny? ha ha maybe I missed something.
ReplyDeleteThe 2 drivers of the dump trucks carrying scrap metal from the El Chayos ranch named La Fortaleza were the first to ''go.'' I didn't know the Mexican Government was demolishing CT founder El Chayos luxury ranch/headquarters.
ReplyDeleteCriminals want to flex? Two can play at that game. I would have a few rapid reaction force raids in the area. If they want attention; give it to them.
ReplyDeleteYes rambo, whatever you want, will you need needle and thread too?
DeleteYeah,so he can sew his injuries up himself?Rambone,I got some twine here?
DeleteI'm puzzled by this. Why ambush a small convoy of junk trucks???????
ReplyDeleteAnd to think Castillo,the General,EPN,all say Michoacan is pacified and Templarios are gone?The name may be gone,but the members and sicarios are all unaccountably hard to find?
ReplyDeleteWhat about giniral burrolas, he is in charge now of the napoleonic republican't force...
DeleteWas he making merdé?
That area is crazy, everybody stapped to the teeth. one shot and everybody busting out their cuernos de chivo and there is allways bunch of people dead. Esos michoacanos no juegan...
ReplyDeleteun regalito De cartel Nueva Generacion aqui Esta En michocan
ReplyDeletePues son de michoacan los jefes
DeleteEl gallito y su gente puro templario!
ReplyDeleteWord is fuerza rurales/civiles are a bunch of ratas that are stealin in apachingan. i know templarios that live in apachingan and they are not gone yet. I saw a few pictures. There was around 10 or 11 dead not 6
ReplyDeleteDid the templarios behave themselves after their leader tuta got captured? Hadnt from there since the tuta Times
ReplyDeleteAll for stealing scrap iron from el mas loco's rancho..
ReplyDeleteBecause alfredo castillo stole and sold all the iron ores away on the blackmarket...
No offense to Borderland Beat and their outstanding updates and post, but the conflicting reports is only common due to the inability of reporters to get out and get stories. That has proven to be far to risky in the past. Hopefully the injured will recover and be fine. Would be great if the count for the innocent killed was 0 and the criminals, all of them.
ReplyDeleteCheerleaders like you disgust me and are a disgrace to the good honest and hard working people of Mexico!
ReplyDeleteStealing scrap iron from el mas loco's ranch is not honest work...
DeleteFinal count is 2 state police and 5 junk metal workers killed.
ReplyDeleteCT killed - 0
