Mexican marines nab narco-jefe "El Grande"
Mexican marines have arrested Sergio Enrique Villareal Barragan, a presumed leader of the barraged Beltran Leyva drug-smuggling cartel, Mexican broadcaster Milenio said on Sunday. Villareal was a colleague of Edgar Valdez Villarreal, alias "La Barbie", a Mexican-American drug smuggler who got arrested at the end of August.The presumed capo, also known as "El Grande" (the big one) for his six-feet-seven-inches height, was a former police officer. Local media reports said he was the current leader of the Juarez cartel, which allegedly smuggled drugs into the United States via Mexico's most violent city, Ciudad Juarez.
