Nuevo Leon: Mexican Army Bags Two Bad Guys
2010-07-25

Elements of the Mexican Army fought armed suspects in Nuevo Leon, killing two and placing two under arrest according to Mexican press reports.

The Mexican 7th Military Zone was conducting an early morning patrol in the municipality (county) of Herrera when they happened upon two suspects riding a Ford Explorer, who then fled from the soldiers. They were immediately captured.

Following a brief interrogation, the suspects told the military about a drug farm at a farm about seven kilometers away.
Are the Mexican military interrogators learning from the RAB?
I doubt the Mexicans needed instruction on mustache was and Number 7 truncheons. They have a loooong tradition of their own.
Once the requested reinforcements arrived, the military force went to the farm known as La Palmas when they were fired on by armed suspects. One suspects was killed by return fire, while three others retreated into a farmhouse. Still dark, soldiers continued exchanging fire with the suspects killing one. Two fled in the early morning darkness.
As if they were never there ...
When Nuevo Leon state Agencia Estatal de Investigaciones (AEI) agents arrived at noon they found one unidentified armed suspect in his 40s with dead an AK-47 assault rifle, and the second dead armed suspect inside the farmhouse in his 20s also with an AK-47 assault rifle.
No shutter gun?
Also found were: 10 AK-47 assault rifles, two 9mm pistols and hundreds of weapons cartridges, as well as several military style uniforms.
