A confrontation broke out between
elements of the Mexican Army and members of "Tropa del Infierno”. (The
Troop of Hell), the enforcer wing of the Northeast Cartel aka CDN.
The army was on a surveillance
patrol on a highway close to the airport in Cd. Victoria, Tamaulipas, in the
Los Fresnos neighborhood, when they were attacked by a group of Tropa, who
immediately began firing at the elements with heavy weapons.
The Tropa members were wearing
cloned uniforms of the Mexican Navy (Marina) and were identified as Tropa del
Infierno sicarios.
The clash occurred around 5:30AM.
The army along with the National
Guard managed to repel the attack which left 12 Tropa members dead. Images depict the dead in the bed of a pickup
and alongside the vehicle. Seized were various vehicles of the organized group,
along with weapons.

Military is almost always overwhelmingly better in shootouts. Makes me wonder if there are extrajudicial killings here and in other cases.
ReplyDeleteThey are better trained. The cartel bitches are young, underweight, badly fed and trained.
DeleteOf course there is. Remember the video when they’ve had gotten los fresas in a shoot out. Then they (military) were recording the aftermath after the video ended there were pictures of one of the sicarios shot in the forehead and on the video he was shot up on the legs and complaining about the pain.
DeleteMexican military is doing great job.. will trained.. if the government ever let's them lose they can swipe out the cartels. I am very surprised the Miltary has not Overthrwn the Mexican government. They could walk into National Palace without firing a shoot. Santa Anda did it. Good luck to Mexican Arm force u r in my prayers
DeleteMexican Miltary u r impressive
DeleteWho the f--- cares! Kill 'em all!
DeleteThey use those sandcat tanks. Thats why they over kill those so call badass sicarios. Have any of you all figure that out which I kind of agree about the armed forces executing the now detain sicarios
Deletemexican military has unparalleled urban combat experience at this point
DeleteHuevo Trevino doesnt pay to the govt..trying to go heads up with them is costing him many people. They are constantly wiping out whole cells of CDN. Im surprised Huevo has enough guys to protect him at this point.
DeleteWe could not prove it directly but we can certainly dpeculate there's a possibility the military just finished off the injured and even the ones who surrendered, in the end who cares about this trash.
Delete3:34 dude it is always like that! The military knows that arresting these scumbags will have no effect and they be out soon again.
Delete3:34 you know well your crap, this is one more state crime, even tropa del infierno knows it is better to surrender to the "mexican armed forces that "fight until every enemy is dead or disappeared"
DeleteWell they were trained in the US of A
DeleteCdn and semar both have green lights on each other it's on sight
Delete@5:16 why would regular soldiers be trained in EEUUAA? 13 years of combat will only sharpen their skills
DeleteNot a single optic on any of those rifles. Kinda strange
DeleteWhat i thought as well. Imagine if they had even a red dot on one of those .50s they could of blown the engine block out of the car if they could aim.
DeleteCdn seems to be the group the most often gets torn up by the military. Is it that other cartels just pay them off or something else?
ReplyDeleteThat is true
DeleteCDN dresses these kids up like la marina but I have a feeling they have very little actually training.
DeleteThey at war with state police and semar
DeleteThere is plaza bosses that order their sicarios to not get in the way of the military and only report of their current location using their “Halcones”
DeleteThey just don’t want any smoke
They are being planted for hunting, to make merits for military and police menbers vacation and bonuses, all the symptoms of Colombian alvaro uribe's campaign of falsos positivos for propaganda are there, start with the politics of no survivors found anywhere near, rhe killers need to be court martialed in a civilian court, dressed down and drummed out of their jobs to prison by honest members, IF THERE ARE ANY
DeleteEvery other cartel will be paying the military and police to attack the CDN Zetas because they control the busy US border crossing.
DeleteCDN's Tropa del Infierno are very aggressive towards government forces, attacking them regularly with very well equipped cannon fodder.
An interesting question. Curious to know the percentage of military confrontations with cartel clashes?
DeleteE42
The Mexican army is so consistent! The articles on their combats are always the same!! Just change time and place and you're set to publish!!!
ReplyDeleteMarina are the least corrupt in the ladder
DeleteIn Mexico, that's how you demand payment!!!
ReplyDeletePast due.
Delete3:53 Mexico nerds to demand no payment from any tropa dressed in cheap chinese pirated marima uniforms, the mexican army lnows to dress up their victims and tell them to run for their lives and the army/marina leaders are the same EPN had disappearing Ayotzinapos.
DeleteLocal governments in a quest for credibility and to stop AMLO from getting involved in "their state" are doing death campaign to show upper hand against crime, do not hand them your panties yet...
I guess playing dress up didn’t workout huh
ReplyDeleteHell is where the Troop of Hell is living right now.
ReplyDeleteMore Tropa De Los Muertos dead, so sad.....
ReplyDeleteDamnnnnn it man.. al infierno fueron a dar
ReplyDelete12 terrorists dead and no extra casualties? Based.
ReplyDeleteHow are they so geared up tactically but no body armor at all?
ReplyDeleteLooks like the SEDENA SandCat rammed the CDN truck from behind. Body armor wouldn’t have saved anyone riding in the truck bed.
DeleteI am going to change their name to ol blood and guts!!!
ReplyDeleteWait until cartels start using Improvised explosive device (IEDs). That's how you wack high value targets via a $10 cell phone. SDSO
ReplyDeleteThat’s part of why SEDENA/SEMAR/Fuerza Tamaulipas ride around in Plasan SandCats. Those things can take multiple direct hits from grenade launchers, RPGs, or IEDs. The Israelis make a good product.
Delete12:05 Those SandCats are not going to stop an RPG maybe an IED but it depends on how big the IED is anything over 10 kilos I doubt it's going to do much. That shit will tear it apart maybe an indirect hit but a direct hit not a chance.
DeleteBarret 50 cals are best used from a distance with AP rounds. If CJNG had used a browning 50 cal machine gun instead of a barret they would have killed Omar García Harfuch (Marcelino García Barragán) I have a feeling old head marcelino made it back from the underworld and is working his way up the chain once again.
12:05 ah yes of course the yews have their hands in this mess in mexico, war & violence equals Money for them selling weapons for war
DeleteWhat? is that someone´s brain leaking off his head? Why dont young cholos see that coming for the next tropa?
ReplyDeleteDid you see the post from a few months back. Another member of the tropa had is head completely bown off!!!
DeleteNot sure this brazen strategy of driving around in the open is really working for them. They are getting lit up.
ReplyDeleteSinaloa, michoacan, guanajuato, chihuahua, y sonora. Tomen notas como los hacen en tamaulipas. Matan esos sicarios sin rendirse. Mejor que sea presidente cabeza de vaca embess de Lopez Obrador. Aun que el es del Pri pero sabe como tener una estrategia pa detener o abatir a la delicuensia. No ordena a liberar un capo si las cosas no salen bien. El no se rinde.
ReplyDeletePa los seguidores de Amlo. Asi es la guerra.
8:29 cabeza de cacas de vacas is a crime generator, ever since osiel financed his campaign for "mayor, he has been collecting from the biggest gangs in Tamaulipas, killing all the leftovers and stealing all the turf.
DeleteNo one. Literally no one at all.
ReplyDeleteTropa del infierno: look the huachitos let's go shoot them with the barrette so they can turn around and kill us...
These guys are idiots. Why would you engage the army to get smacked. CDN are the type of sicarios that listen to their trash music and believe their own hype.
By the looks of it they were in a highway shoot out, then crashed got cornered.. maybe blinded with high beams while getting outgunned -eLxBarrett
ReplyDeleteThe army never claims losses which always makes me wonder how many of theirs were killed , thats a lot of dead sicarios for not one military getting killed and shot? That doesnt make sense to me
ReplyDelete11:01 when you find out about extra-judiciary killings,
Deleteeverything makes sense
At keast Tropa del Infierno are always in dress code and well equipped. They dont hide their identity like other cartls.
ReplyDeleteNeed higher body counts to eradicate these spawns from hell.
ReplyDeleteA good a zeta is a dead zeta
ReplyDeleteThis is the work of an elite sicario from Mexican Military
ReplyDeleteExplain to me why they attack police or military who are on patrol? Seems like they quite often lose these battles. Wouldn't it be better to lay low and to wait for them to pass?
ReplyDeleteYou would think, right?
DeleteSometimes they can't help it there are only so many roads and those same roads are traveled by many people from different groups and law enforcement. Other times military get ambushed by these idiots and since military has more training they end up dying
DeleteThe Military and State police live in terror in Nuevo Laredo. They have to truck in their own fuel. They can't eat in cafes. CDN will torch any business caught serving them.
DeleteThe moment that they set foot outside of their barracks they can expect .50 calibre rounds incoming.
They ambush the military in one location, and then are free shift a truck full of drugs elsewhere.
It is not such a crazy tactic as long as they have a steady supply of cannon fodder and weapons.
This is accurate
DeleteGood! If they thought they liked to act like a 'group from hell', that's where they damn well can go! Note what extraordinary heavy weapons must of them had by the way. Inheritances from in the hay-day? Didn't mach their tactics web's shooting skills obviously. Though they would in little time be vastly outmanned taking on the pros anyway, of course. Guess v your best bet as a criminal is to keep low-profile and to stay out of sight as much as you can.
ReplyDeleteLets face it, there is noone cartel who can't take or enter on CDN turf.Sinaloa failed, CJNG, etc...
ReplyDeleteI dont know where to start with this reply....mejor no decir nada
DeleteSinaloa failed because nuevo laredo was controlled by the cdg and the cdg had real zetas and real sicarios from tamaulipas on point on the war with chapos and beltranes. The cdn doesnt have the connections of the cdg nor the original zetas anymore. The cdn is the treviño faction without the 2 main azzhole treviños. Also the only reason why the cdn makes money is because n.l. is a great plaza. Once drugs are in the usa u got san antonio and dallas and houston. Lot of money in thos cities and great drug hubs to send to the rest of usa. Nuevo laredo wld be a great plaza for a real cartel as it was when the cdg used to run it.
Delete@107, as a person who’s crossed multiple times through all major ports of entry including garitas, I agree with 836. I’ve noticed the border patrol are more active in The Nuevo Laredo and McAllen poets of entry. Including the garitas. And yes just outside of falfurrias I was pulled over and detained for a non sense violation and ended up getting searched and realeased. I don’t dwell into the dope world so I know I’m good but somehow when I’m in the valley I feel more scrutinized by the fellow Mexican American working for the law. They’re suspicions are so heacy that for a second you’re convinced yourself that you’re smuggling something even though you’re cleaner than a mofo.
DeleteI wonder what's Scottish zeta's excuse for his mighty comrades to get killed that easily.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing
DeleteScottish zeta is hear to tell some hard truths why do the military never declare their dead? When the troopa de inferno rocked up with 150+men with 30 pick ups and shot up a town with 50 cal but yet it was 4 security forces dead and 17 cdn dead the only thing the military do is kick doors In and kill unarmed teenagers el senor lazca has unleashed the Scottish battalion of the last letter to squash these gafe wannabees el mchummer will extinguish them
ReplyDeleteATTE SCOTTISH ZETA
Troops especially in the north are being trained by latino EUA special forces elements. México is being very secretive about this. La Armada? I think this is going on more than we realize. Soldados Latinos in EUA are disgusted and are than willing to volunteer as unarmed advisors. They are limited to training not patrols. And soon there may be helicopters with pilotos Mexicanos. No more caravanas de sicarios en Chihuahua. We live in interesting times.
ReplyDeletein the old days we Respected the Cartels, they did not hurt the innocent people of Tamps. But when the Zetas showed up that changed
ReplyDeleteI wonder what the point of wearing Vest when the vest did not protect you i meant yess some of them got shot on the HEAD but most of them are in their body so whats the point if did not save our life its heavy bulky better to remove go lighter you may save your life ... Not only CDN But other cartel too they wear vest but still died
