Default Breaking: Multiple ranches in laredo, tx taken over by los zetas

by Digger - republished with permission from DiggersRealm

The bloodbath continues along our southern border and now word is coming in that Los Zetas, the highly trained killers formerly with the Gulf Cartel, have crossed into the United States and taken over at least two ranches in the Laredo, Texas area. I am receiving word that the owners of the ranches have evacuated without being harmed. As of this hour I cannot confirm 100% on the situation (I am at around 90%) - though the source is law enforcement in the area.

The ranches are said to be "near Mines Rd. and Minerales Rd. about 10 miles NW of I-35".

Whether it is lone members or squads is not certain.

Anonymous sources in law enforcement in the Laredo area tonight have passed on word that US law enforcement agencies are in the area and are weighing their options regarding the ranches. The media has been silent on this incident and some law enforcement in the area says that they are furious that the media is not reporting the whole story of the continued violence along the border. Their frustrations are understandable because keeping the truth suppressed continues to hamper law enforcement from receiving the true support they need along the border.

The ranch assaults come on the heals of attacks in Nuevo Laredo that shut the city down as a gun-battle raged in the streets. Los Zetas blocked off intersections with vehicles and used fragmentation grenades to attack Mexican law enforcement. In the end 12 were killed and 21 injured in the assaults. Citizens in the area were told to stay in their homes and bullets whizzed all around.

Cypress Times

The U.S. Consulate in Nuevo Laredo had posted warnings on its website hours before the gunfire was reported by Texas citizens, “We have received credible reports of widespread violence occurring now between narcotics-trafficking organizations and the Mexican army in Nuevo Laredo.”

The U.S. Consulate went on to say, “The consulate confirmed that fragmentation grenades were used in the attacks and that suspected drug-gang members had blocked several roads, adding that it advised ‘all U.S. citizens in Nuevo Laredo to remain indoors until the security situation improves.’”

US Citizens in Laredo called 911 after hearing gunfire and explosions just across the border. Laredo police spokesman Joe Baeza deflected the concerns of citizens with what I see as utter contempt. He said there was no spillover violence onto the US side and "We were getting reports from people who live on the river's edge that they could hear gunfire and explosions from the Mexico side," Baeza said, "We didn't have any incidents on the American side. It's hard for people to understand who don't live here ... They're not Vikings, they're not going to invade us, it doesn't work that way."

This was said just a day before the reported breaking news on the ranches being taken above.

Violence has been on the rise along the border. In April 2010 a Border Patrol agent in Laredo shot and killed an lllegal alien drug smuggler near the Rio Grande

The Los Zetas are highly trained killers initially trained by United States Special Operations forces to combat the drug cartes within Mexico. As the drug war heated up the Zetas saw more money in working for the cartels and joined up with the Gulf Cartel.

In March, 2010 there was a fracture between the Los Zetas and the Gulf Cartel when a Zetas leader was said to have been assassinated by the Gulf Cartel. They demanded that the killer be turned over to them. When the Gulf Cartel refused the Zetas captured 16 Gulf Cartel members.

Since March Los Zetas abandoned their stronghold in Reynosa and moved to Nuevo Laredo, just across from the border with Laredo, Texas. There are estimated to be over 1,000 Zeta members there.

Numerous reports are coming in from all over the place. Conflicting reports as official sources are denying everything.

Can anyone confirm, perhaps with Jeff Schwilk?

Of all sources that make gosh darn damn sure he got it right, Digger is the best.

If the reports say that the ranches have been "evacuated", that sounds a little strange. How can you have it both ways? If the zetas have taken over, then where is the "evacuation"? An evacuation takes place when the legal authorities step in and relocate people. Why would they move people away from areas that have been taken over already? It doesn't make any sense. And if law enforcement is supposed to be in the areas of the ranches, then that is something that can be easily observed too.

The evacuation would be of the people who were living there.

As one of the substantiating reports allegedly came from Diggersrealm I looked at his site and he confirms. Digger has been a long time activist who posted at the old SOS site. Digger covered SOS events. I have never known Digger to lie about anything.

A check at the San Diego Examiner also supports the story. http://www.examiner.com/x-10317-San-...-Buzz-Examiner

It was just a day or two prior to this incident that the gunbattle at Nuevo Laredo, which is mere blocks from Laredo frightened Laredo residents. It has been just a few weeks since gunfire from mexico hit the City Hall at El Paso. Clearly the fighting in mexico has gotten perilously close to the US. If it has jumped the border, at this time, with the federal lawsuit against Arizona being heard right now, it would spell disaster for the regime.

I have heard from someone who actually lives in Laredo.

The talk all around the town is how a couple of outlying ranches were taken over by Los Zetas. That's rumors mind you. Just gossip. There is a lot more border patrol activity and a whole lot more county sheriffs around.

Sooner or later someone is going to know someone who lived at these ranches. Unless entire families have been taken into protective custody to keep them from talking the truth will come out someplace.

Second source on the ground right there.

This story IS true.

Copy of e-mail received.

I would say that my sources are unimpeachable: Mexican Drug Gangs are holding TWO areas in South Texas near Laredo. What is unconfirmed is that these Mexican outposts are on privately owned ranches.

There is also a lake in that general area, and I'm not sure if it's Lake Casa Blanca State Park, where recreational boaters and fisherman are being harassed [and I have heard, are being fired upon], by the drug gangs.

Why the State of Texas and Rick Perry is allowing this to continue, I do not understand. But . . . a slam against Perry, that is, but anyone thinks that Bill White will do something about it is living in a real dream world. Bill White will kiss every Mexican ass South of the Border.

Is Texas not taking action because the gangs are operating on Federal land, or is Texas just turning a blind eye to it?

As far as I am concerned, two residents, on the scene have confirmed this story.
