Mexico captures Gulf Cartel heavy near the border

 Breitbart:

A top leader with Mexico’s Gulf Cartel is expected to face a judge in the near future for his role in violent crimes and even a massacre in the border city of Reynosa.

Known in the criminal underworld as “La Droga or Ciclon 89,” Oscar Antonio Lopez Sandoval is the chief regional enforcer for the Matamoros faction of the Gulf Cartel and is second-in-command for the sect. Tamaulipas authorities arrested him on Sunday night during a raid in the border city and then moved him in preparation for his hearing before a state judge on charges including murder, top law enforcement sources tell Breitbart Texas.

The raid took place on Sunday night in the beach area known as El Mezquital, where Lopez Sandoval was fishing without his security detail. Special police officers arrested his fishing party.

The raid allowed authorities to get him out of the city before Gulf Cartel forces could intervene. Mexican state and security forces escalated patrol operations around Matamoros in the aftermath.

About an hour after the arrest, Gulf Cartel gunmen had several small clashes with security forces in Matamoros, primarily on the south and east sides of town. The areas are widely used by the criminal organization for stash houses.

...

Matamoras is across the Rio Grande from Brownsville at the tip of Texas.  Reynosa is across from McAllen, Texas where many of the illegals are crossing into the US after paying off the cartels.  Texas may want to consider trying this guy too for facilitating the crossing of criminals into the state.  

Biden's border policy has enriched the cartels.
