Mexican Apache helicopter guns down drug cartel members
Mexican Apache helicopter guns down drug cartel members
By Andrew V. Pestano | Feb. 10, 2017 at 11:36 AM
Feb. 10 (UPI) -- Mexico's Secretariat of the Navy said federal security forces killed Beltrán-Leyva cartel regional leader Juan Francisco Patrón and seven others during a shootout.
Patrón, also known as H2, was a key figure in the cartel's operations in Nayarit and Jalisco, Mexican officials said. After a security operation, Patrón and his accomplices took up shelter inside of a residence in Nayarit state.
Officials said security forces surrounded Patrón, who did not back down. An Apache helicopter fired down to where Patrón and his accomplices where hiding.
It is not clear if the men died from the helicopter fire.
"Today in a confrontation between criminals and Federal Forces, Juan Francisco N. was shot down with seven more accomplices," the Navy Secretariat said in a statement.
The Beltrán-Leyva cartel, also known as the Beltrán-Leyva Organization, began as a branch of Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman's Sinaloa Cartel before infighting split the group and they became enemies.

Mexico City (AFP) - Mexican authorities killed a drug cartel leader and 11 other gang suspects in clashes involving ground forces and a military helicopter that fired at the gunmen, officials said Friday.
Juan Francisco Patron Sanchez, a regional leader of the Beltran Leyva cartel, was among those killed in the gun battle late Thursday in the Pacific coast state of Nayarit, the government said.
The navy said in a statement that the skirmish began when the gunmen used "high-caliber" weapons against federal forces who had been following the suspects in the town of Tepic.
"To reduce the level of aggression and lower the risk of death among civilians and federal forces, (troops) repelled the attack with the support of dissuasive fire from a helicopter," the statement said.
A federal official told AFP it was a marine Black Hawk helicopter. Marines were involved in the initial attack and they were later joined by federal police and army troops, the official said on condition of anonymity.
The use of the helicopter allowed ground forces to "control the aggression, resulting in the death of eight suspected lawbreakers," including Patron, the navy said.
Several rifles and handguns, as well as a grenade launcher, were seized.
Federal forces repelled a "second aggression" near Tepic's airport, leaving four more suspects dead, the statement said.
None of the federal forces were hurt.
The interior ministry said Patron was the cartel's leader in Nayarit and part of the neighboring state of Jalisco.
The region is also home to the powerful Jalisco New Generation drug cartel, which brought down a military helicopter with a rocket-propelled grenade in May 2015, killing seven soldiers and a policewoman.
Days after that clash, the federal police, backed by a Black Hawk helicopter, killed 42 New Generation suspects in Tanhuato, a town at the border of the states of Michoacan and Jalisco.
President Enrique Pena Nieto fired the federal police chief last year following allegations that at least 22 suspects were summarily executed in Tanhuato.
Nayarit also shares a border with the northwestern state of Sinaloa, where at least 21 people have been killed since last weekend, including a marine.
The powerful Sinaloa drug cartel used to be allies of the Beltran Leyva crime family, but the groups are now enemies.
The Beltran Leyvas have been weakened in recent years following the capture of kingpin Alfredo Beltran Leyva in 2008, the death of his brother, Arturo, in a shootout with troops in 2009, and the arrest of another sibling, Hector, in 2014.

Why haven't they used them since 2008? This is what the corrupt, lying, Mexicans do.
They will kill off some Cartels, or deport some Central American's as a carrot for the US to see...then back to their old tricks of drug money and the invasion of our Country.
Then come here a say "see" we are doing something...with their hands held out for more extortion money. Give them nothing.ILLEGAL ALIENS HAVE "BROKEN" OUR IMMIGRATION SYSTEM
