The unbelievable savagery and heinous crimes being committed in massive scale south of the border, on the border and within the United States is virtually ignored by the three branches of our U.S. government and is inexcusable. Securing the border should be the first priority of any government national security.  Thanks to organizations such as National Association of Former Border Patrol Officers.

The NAFBPO extracts and condenses the material that follows from Mexican and Central and South American on-line media sources on a daily basis.  The following is the text version without photos as some are too graphic for our publlication.  Click here to view full version.

ACAPULCO, GUERRERO

Two men found butchered near the convention center.

CHIHUAHUA, CHIHUAHUA

DURANGO, DURANGO

Gunfight within prison leaves 9 inmates dead.

ACAPULCO, GUERRERO

Municipal police officer gunned down on duty.

SAN FERNANDO, TAMAULIPAS

MX military clashed with cartel gunmen after being attacked by them. Military 5, Cartel 0. Seized were four guns, a handgun, 24 magazines, 638 cartridges, and a vehicle.

NUEVO LAREDO, TAMAULIPAS

Narco blockades and shootings caused businesses to close and parents to pull kids from schools. (The cartels use these blockades to block the military vehicles, and thus isolate the military into pockets which are easier defeated. It also allows the cartels easier escapes.)

GUADALUPE, NUEVO LEÓN

Two beheaded men left in car near PRI headquarters, with a narco message directed to the Mayor.

LOS INDIOS, TAMAULIPAS

Shootout between gunmen in 17 trucks and military resulted in 3 bad guys dead, and 3 captured. Seized were 83 rifles, 18 handguns, 315 magazines, over 18 thousand rounds ammunition, five rocket-propelled grenades, 28 grenades, a rocket launcher, 17 vehicles, Cocaine, Marijuana, tactical equipment, among other things.

 

MAZATLAN, SINALOA

Shootout at a livestock auction left 1 dead and several injured, including a 78 year old woman.

JUAREZ, NUEVO LEÓN (NOT Ciudad Juarez across from El Paso)

Military encountered gunmen in 6 vehicles, which triggered a chase and shootout. Two bad guys down, rest escaped.

ACAPULCO, GUERRERO

Military attacked from room within hotel. Three civilian pedestrians were wounded. Single gunman captured. (One wonders if this might have been a diversion so that the cartel could carry out other operations without a full military/police response.)

CIUDAD JUAREZ, CHIHUAHUA

Burned body of man left at intersection with narco message.

APAXTLA DE CASTREJON, GUERRERO
