Tamaulipas: Hell unleashed in the Tamps war

SteveCtpa for Borderland Beat from VXT

Note: The cartel northeast, continues to attack and advance in the area of  area of Miguel Aleman Tamaulipas, which is  controlled by the " Gulf Cartel ".

It is rumored that CJNG is financing the CDN advancement and warring.   This is something I wrote about and predicted a year ago.   This is also their MO; enter into short term agreements or limited alliances to achieve a goal, then cutting ties and turning on those who allied. 

And this would be a tremendous achievement for the cartel, having good control on both coasts, with the star “Nuevo Laredo’ on the gulf or east side of Mexico. It made sense to me that they advance to control TJ, then some of the interior states, then Tamaulipas especially NL. If that occurs they will then attempt to advance in key places on the frontera and Veracruz.  I hope I am wrong.  [Chivis]

Shortly after 11 o'clock last night and approximately until 6 o'clock today, there was a fierce confrontation in the town of Los Guerra de Miguel Alemán Tamaulipas, with unknown groups that clashed but left several trucks burnt, in the streets of the city.

Until the first hours of this day, blockades were reported in the main access to the town, where armed individuals placed heavy units on the Ribereña highway, to avoid the authorities from entering.

The residents of the town of Los Guerra could not sleep last night and had to lie on the floor for hours, even until dawn, due to the bursts of bullets that seemed to be endless, as loud detonations were heard. The buzz of projectiles that were shot, came from different directions.

Authorities moved to the town to carry out the investigation of burned units and possible bodies killed by both sides of rival groups.

Social media reports indicate the confrontation between CDN and CDG. On one of the truck’s passenger door, “CDN” can be read on the truck in the last image below.
