Gulf Cartel Border City Turf War Kills at Least 20 Gunmen, Innocents in Week
2020-02-26
[BREITBART] More than 20 individuals, including innocent bystanders, were killed in the span of a week between the cities of Reynosa and Rio Bravo as factions of the Gulf Cartel wage an internal pie fight.

The Reynosa faction known as "Los Metros" is fighting the Matamoros group "Escorpiones" or "Ciclones" to hold lucrative drug and human smuggling territories near the Texas border.

Currently, the Matamoros faction managed to take Rio Bravo and is using the area to stage incursions into nearby Reynosa, where they usually target lookouts and button men. In a similar fashion, button men from Reynosa are retaliating on rivals stationed in Rio Bravo.
