The Marines, at all times, counted on the support of area surveillance from a helicopter, which according to witness, was fired upon by the armed group.
The social networks buzzed with the version of events, and that among the victims was “El Commandante Toro”, leader of the Gulf Cartel in the Region, but until last night there had been no confirmation from any authorities.
The Las Granjas Colonia was the location of the final firefight in which the eight alleged members of organized crime were taken down.
