A group of individuals linked to La Mayiza—a prominent Sinaloa Cartel faction—was arrested this week by Mexican authorities following a citizen tip that reported the kidnapping of a member of Los Chapitos, La Mayiza's rival faction, in Culiacán, Sinaloa.
When members of the Mexican army, navy, National Guard, and the Attorney General's Office arrived in the Llano del Bajo neighborhood in southeast Culiacán, they found that the person being held was an associate of Los Chapitos.
