US-Mexico Border Town Transformed Into Warzone After Drug Cartel Leader’s Arrest
The Mexican border city of Nuevo Laredo has been transformed into a warzone after the arrest of a top cartel boss. Burning vehicles littered the streets, and heavy gunfighting was reported causing the U.S. consulate to go on lockdown and the U.S. border crossing to be temporarily shut down on Monday.
The chaos erupted late Sunday when Juan Gerardo Trevino, or “El Huevo,” the leader of one faction of the Northeast Cartel, the successor group to the Zetas Cartel, was arrested. He is also a U.S. citizen, a Mexican government official told Reuters. Trevino is on the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) list of most wanted cartel members.
Trevino faces a U.S. extradition order for drug trafficking and money laundering.

In response to the arrest, cartel members hijacked and burned vehicles and attacked law enforcement and military personnel.

“During the night of Sunday, there were shootings, burning of trucks, and a grenade attack on the U.S. consulate.
