The confrontation caused panic because it took place in a central area and, in addition, where a CBTIS school is located.


Rio Bravo - Due to the seriousness of his head wound, the State Guard member who confronted armed civilians during a shootout in the municipality of Rio Bravo, Tamaulipas, lost his life.


The confrontation, where two of the gunmen were detained, caused panic because it took place in a central area and, in addition, where a CBTIS school is located.


Although the Secretary of Security of Tamaulipas has not issued any information about the death of the officer, it was reported that he is Cristofer Rivera.


The policeman was initially treated at a hospital in Rio Bravo, but due to the seriousness of the wound and his delicate condition, he was transferred to the Muguerza Hospital in Reynosa.


Here, he was reported as seriously brain dead and finally lost his life.


It is expected that the Government of Tamaulipas will honor the fallen element in the line of duty.

  1. The Gulf doesn’t get as much spotlight as say CJNG or Sinaloa, but they’re history is much richer. And they will always be some faction or group that represents them on that Texas border. One of the more brutal conflicts to come out of all the narco wars was zetas vs. gulf. With Osiel getting ready to get released I’m sure those plazas will heat back up. Unless he strikes a deal with Mayo and they work together. That’s 100% speculation, but mayo is only capo left that is old school like osiel. I had no idea basically most of the leadership in gulf were prior law enforcement officers.

    3. Osiel has burned too many bridges. I don't even see Mayo taking him in. If he were smart he would retire in Argentina or Chile.

  4. Public Safety official, stated "State Guard officer, was injured when shot in the head".
    Why Beat around the bush, why use the word injured, when he is actually dead.
