BUENOS AIRES ( Drug Enforcement Chief Shot outside his House - Nestor Roncaglia )
Argentine Drug Enforcement Chief Shot
BUENOS AIRES – The
chief of the Argentine Federal Police’s dangerous drugs division was shot
outside his house and investigators do not consider the incident a random crime,
Security Secretary Sergio Berni said Sunday.
Nestor Roncaglia was shot in the chest and hand Saturday night in Olivos, a northern suburb of Buenos Aires, Berni said.
“We are not ruling out any theory because it would be irresponsible to say what happened, but we are convinced it was not a common assault,” Berni told the press.
Roncaglia is out of danger but remains in the intensive care unit of a Buenos Aires hospital.
The drug enforcement chief was shot after overseeing several raids, police spokesmen told the official Telam news agency.
Roncaglia spotted two suspicious men outside his house and ordered them to halt.
The suspects opened fire on Roncaglia, who returned fire with his service weapon.
Investigators are trying to determine whether a man taken to a hospital in the Buenos Aires suburb of Pilar with a gunshot wound was one of the criminals involved in the attack on Roncaglia, officials said.

Guatemalan Police Make Big Cocaine Bust
GUATEMALA CITY –
Drug enforcement agents seized 1,048 kilos of cocaine hidden in a van in Puerto
Quetzal, a city in the southern Guatemalan province of Escuintla, but no arrests
were made, a police spokesman said Sunday.
The cocaine arrived in the Central American country from Guayaquil, Ecuador, and was to be delivered to a Guatemalan company, a National Civilian Police, or PNC, spokesman said.
The drugs were found Saturday packed in plastic bags hidden in a shipment of tile.
“The shipment came from the Ecuadorian city of Guayaquil and was destined for a transportation company in Mixco (west of the capital) that we are investigating,” the PNC spokesman said.
The cocaine was discovered during a routine inspection by drug enforcement agents in Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala’s main Pacific port.

Mexico Juarez ( Five people were killed in a Drive by Shooting - with a AK-47 ) Cartel Wars
MONTERREY, Mexico –
Five people were killed and one was wounded in two shootings earlier this
weekend in the northern Mexican state of Nuevo Leon, officials said.An unidentified gunman opened fire on a group of young men in the Villa de San Juan district of the city of Juarez, located east of Monterrey, around 11:00 p.m. Friday, killing four of them and wounding the fifth.
The gunman drove up to the house where the young men were drinking, threatened them and opened fire with an AK-47 assault rifle.
The killings may be related to drug trafficking, Nuevo Leon Security Council officials said.
Another shooting around the same time on Friday night left a man dead in the Independencia section of Monterrey, the capital of Nuevo Leon.
Police officers responding to reports of shots fired went to the area and found a dead body inside a house and two severely beaten men in a nearby ditch, officials said.
Investigators are trying to determine whether the incident was a fight between neighbors, officials said.
Nuevo Leon, one of Mexico’s most violent states, is the scene of a turf war between the Gulf cartel and Los Zetas.
After several years on the payroll of the Gulf cartel, Los Zetas, considered Mexico’s most violent criminal organization, went into the drug business on their own account and now control several lucrative territories.
The criminal organizations have been fighting for control of smuggling routes into the United States since 2010
Mexico ( Police Arrest 9 for the Killings of two Honduran women in Southern Mexico )
Police Arrest 9 for Killings of Hondurans in Southern
Mexico
MEXICO CITY – Nine
illegal Honduran immigrants who apparently “belong to Central American gangs
dedicated to extortion and robberies of migrants” have been arrested in
connection with the killings last week of two Hondurans in southern Mexico,
officials said.
The suspects confessed to the killings, which occurred last Thursday, the Government Secretariat and the National Migration Institute, or INM, said in a joint statement.
The bodies of Iris Suleida Raudales Flores, 24, and Cynthia Carolina Cruz Bonilla, 19, were found outside Palenque, a city in Chiapas state, prosecutors said.
The two women were shot and stabbed, the Chiapas state Attorney General’s Office said.
The nine suspects were found aboard a bus that had stopped in the town of Nueva Esperanza by Federal Police officers and Chiapas state police.
Officers found two firearms, ammunition and ammunition clips in a suitcase belonging to the suspects, officials said.
Samuel Hernandez Ramirez, Oscar Edgardo Martinez Garcia, Duglas Alexander Valera Carias, Yoni Alexander Vazquez Membreño, Carlos Antonio Dominguez Espino, Agustin Perez Diaz, Duglas Alexander Cornejo Arevalo, Juan Pablo Lendos and Dayrel Guadalupe Perez were arrested in connection with the killings, the AG’s office said.
An estimated 300,000 Central Americans undertake the hazardous journey across Mexico each year on their way to the United States.
The trek is a dangerous one, with criminals and corrupt Mexican officials preying on the migrants.
Gangs kidnap, exploit and murder migrants, who are often targeted in extortion schemes, Mexican officials say

Mexico ( Two Female Honduran Migrants shot and Killed on a Train in Southeast Mexico )
Two Honduran Migrants Killed on a Train in Southeast
Mexico
SAN CRISTOBAL
DE LAS CASAS, Mexico – Two Honduran women traveling with other migrants on a
train in the southeastern Mexican state of Chiapas have been killed, state
prosecutors said.
The Chiapas state Attorney General’s Office, which is investigating the double homicide, said witnesses told police that the two victims had been “traveling with a group of migrants in one of the train cars” and that later “they heard guns being shot and then found the lifeless bodies of the two women.”
The incident occurred Thursday afternoon on the railroad between Playas de Catazaja and Crucero Shupa in Palenque municipality.
The young women, identified as Iris Suleida Raudales Flores, 24, and Cynthia Carolina Cruz Bonilla, 19, both from Honduras, had suffered gunshot and knife wounds, the AG’s office said in a statement.
Personnel from the Special Prosecutor’s Office for Crimes Against Immigrants in Chiapas arrived at the scene to begin investigations.
Authorities said that police and Mexican army troops were carrying out inspection and surveillance patrols throughout the area in an attempt to nab the killers.
Official figures show that every year some 300,000 undocumented migrants, mostly Central Americans, cross the more than 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) of border that Mexico shares with Guatemala and Belize to try and reach the United States.
In recent years, the risk migrants run has increased considerably due to the growing presence of organized crime along their route
