MATAMOROS, MEXICO - The Mexican military has taken down some of the Gulf Cartel’s top leaders. A cartel expert says we'll probably see more violence in Matamoros in the coming days.

The expert say the Zetas see will see these arrests as an opportunity to take advantage of the Gulf's troubles.

Five top power brokers in the Gulf Cartel are in shackles and out of circulation. One of them, Exequiel Cardenas Rivera, is the son of Antonio Cardenas Guillen, better known as “Tony Tormenta.â€
