A Mexican federal judge approved extradition to the U.S. for one of the suspects in the Juárez consulate killings, officials said Wednesday.

José Guadalupe "El Zorro" DÃ*az DÃ*az, 32, had been detained since Nov. 17. He was arrested along with Reynaldo "El Rey" DÃ*az DÃ*az, 27.

A judge sent José DÃ*az to a federal prison in the state of Veracruz until his extradition to the United States, while Reynaldo DÃ*az will face charges of drug trafficking and illegal possession of weapons in Mexico, attorney general officials said.
