MATAMOROS, MEXICO - Cartel members and the Mexican military exchanged gunfire on the west side of Matamoros. This was the third gunbattle in the last two weeks. One person was killed and four others including a Mexican Soldier were injured.

It started around 11 a.m. and lasted about four hours. Authorities say the Mexican military and Zeta Cartel members exchanged gunfire in three colonias on the city's west side. The names of the colonias were Puerto Rico, Las Brisas and Rincon Colonial. This is the same area where the cartels and military have been fighting over the last two weeks.
