MEXICO (LOS ZETAS Drug Cartel) BUSTED out 131 INMATES from PRISON

Authorities suspect the Zetas drug cartel orchestrated the mass tunnel escape of 131 inmates at a northern Mexico border prison, apparently to replenish its ranks after suffering blows from a rival gang.


Two escapees have since been captured, according to El Universal newspaper, and three female inmates initially thought to have been fugitives were found hiding in a prison visiting area, where they took refuge after being threatened by the inmates who led the breakout.
U.S. border officials said they were on alert, and Eagle Pass Police Chief Tony Castaneda said his department had received the list of 87 escaped federal inmates. No escapees had been reported crossing the border.
The Zetas cartel has been fighting a bloody turf battle with the Sinaloa cartel in that border state. According to Jorge Luis Moran, public safety secretary of the northern border state of Coahuila, the Zetas controlled the drug corridor until 2010, when members of the powerful Sinaloa gang were sent to the state.
