Mexican drug kingpin Ismael ‘El Mayo’ Zambada and Joaquin Guzman Lopez , son of ‘El Chapo’ were arrested in Texas Two of Mexico’s most notorious cartel leaders who make a combined $11 billion a year have been arrested by US authorities in Texas. Mexican drug kingpin Ismael ‘El Mayo’ Zambada and the son of his ex-partner, Joaquin ‘El Chapo’ Guzman, were apprehended on Thursday in El Paso, Texas, in a major coup for authorities that may also reshape the global criminal landscape.
Joaquin Guzman Lopez was one of El Chapo’s four sons who ran the cartel following his arrest One worker at the Santa Teresa airport, near El Paso, on Thursday afternoon told Reuters that he saw a Beechcraft King Air land on the runway, where federal agents were already waiting. ‘Two individuals got off the plane… and were calmly taken into custody,’ said the man, who declined to share his name out of concern for his safety. ‘It seemed like a pretty calm, arranged thing,’ he added.
