A group of Mexican police officers talked a crying Gulf Cartel gunman into surrendering his gun.
The gunman removed his gear and began to take off a black tactical shirt before the video ended. It remains unclear if the gunman is facing charges or if they turned him over to Mexican immigration authorities. In the past, the Gulf Cartel and other criminal organizations have recruited or conscripted migrants into their ranks.
Breitbart Texas consulted with Tamaulipas law enforcement sources who revealed that the encounter took place this week in Camargo. This region is experiencing a spike in clashes over ongoing cartel turf wars in an area just south of Starr and Hidalgo Counties in Texas in an area known as La Riberena. That area is home to the main crossing corridors for the Gulf Cartel.
Despite government rhetoric about improving security conditions in Tamaulipas, the state continues to see a dramatic rise in violence including regular shootouts in border cities like Reynosa, Miguel Aleman, Camargo, and Matamoros.
