M4 Killed Reported Killed

Yesterday this was reported but I held the story back to get further information. Since readers have asked about it I have decided to post what little there is. I really am not sure of its validity however this is what was reported on KNVO Noticias 48 who broke the story.

Unofficial reports state that in the clashes yesterday between the boundaries of the cities of Matamoros and Reynosa, David Salgado alias Metro 4′ was killed. “Metro 4 or M4 was/is a member of the high command of the criminal organization the Gulf Cartel. The M4 is a native of Matamoros Tamaulipas, son of a customs agent in the area.

UPDATE:

The apparent death of David Salgado alias M4 (Metro) occurred in the early hours of January 15

At 2: 20 am on 15 January there was a situation of risk by fracc. Valle Vergel summits and San José.

There commenced a confrontation between armed civilians vs. armed civilians (organized criminals)

At 3: 30 the person known as M4 was taken to the operating room at the Hospital after entering wounded. He allegedly died during the intervention.

While in the street there were reports of convoys comprising scores of vehicles belonging to the CDG patrolling the streets of Reynosa.

While people in the streets spread 2 versions... . choose yours

1.-Zetas had entered Reynosa resulting in the clash.

2.-There had been internal conflict/split between CDG (word on the street says the nicknames are such as Tachas, Cortez Salinas, Wero (perhaps the gringo)

Apparently the second of the divided organization aboard would be of Mario Pelon aka 20X

As soon as violence was heard a safety alert from civilians, the decent people who care, through networks which more or less said:

SAFETY ALERT REYNOSA,Based on incoming xxxxx, we expect high risk situations, to INCREASE AWARENESS AND AVOID TRANSIT IF possible.

Hollywood ( From actor to skid row drug addict - His 6 yr old son tested positve for cocaine after in dads care )

Terminator 2' Actor Edward Furlong Arrested for Domestic Battery, Held in Jail on $50k bond

By Kathleen Perricone

 

 

Furlong's mug shot. (Supplied by LA County Sheriff/PacificCoastNews.com)It looks like 2013 isn’t going any better than 2012 was for actor Edward Furlong.

The “Terminator 2” star was arrested at 5:45 a.m. Sunday morning after Los Angeles police were summoned to an apartment in West Hollywood for a domestic disturbance – marking his third time in handcuffs in three months for assaulting the same girlfriend! He was also taken into custody on November 21 and previously at Los Angeles International Airport on October 30 for abusing the unknown woman.
Since his latest arrest, Furlong, 35, has been sitting in Men’s Central Jail in L.A. on $50,000 bond (including $30,000 for an outstanding warrant for violating his probation for a previous incident). Although he was due in court on Tuesday morning on the charge of domestic battery, as of press time there was no word of the outcome, a representative for the Los Angeles County Sherriff’s Office tells omg!.
Aside from the abuse allegations, Furlong made headlines last August when he flagged down police and told them his wallet was stolen while he was asking for directions in the drug-infested Skid Row area of Downtown L.A. Even more unbelievable, five days later, the actor – wearing the same exact T-shirt he had on during the initial incident – told TMZ he got it back, but didn’t want to go into details.
Furlong has also been banned from being alone with his 6-year-old son with his ex-wife Rachel Kneeland after she told a judge in November that the boy tested positive for cocaine after being returned from his father’s care.
When omg! contacted Furlong’s rep, we were told the company no longer represents the troubled actor.

TUCSON Az ( Cigarette bandit - steals 4000 dollars worth from circle k ) See photo

TUCSON, AZ (CBS5) -
Police are asking for the public's help finding a brazen cigarette thief who has struck Tucson-area Circle K stores eight times since November.
The suspect has stolen more than $4,000 worth of cigarettes between Nov. 1, 2012 and Jan. 9, 2013, Tucson police spokeswoman Sgt. Maria Hawke said.
The thief is targeting Circle K stores on the northwest side of the city. In each incident, he enters the store and walks directly behind the cashier counter, Hawke said.
He then removes packs and/or cartons of cigarettes from the display case, places them in a bag that he brought with him into the store, and leaves without paying, Hawke said.
In each incident, the suspect was captured on video surveillance, giving officers some leads to pursue.
The suspect is described as a man between 20 to 25 years old. He is between 5'8" to 5'11" tall and weighs 150 to 180 pounds. He has brown hair.
In several of the crimes, the suspect was seen wearing the same jacket and/or ball cap. The ball cap has a large "LA" on the front and the jacket is green and black camouflage.
People with information about the suspect's identity or whereabouts are urged to call 911 or 88-Crime.
