Mexican authorities arrested Rafael “N,” alias “R2,” in a DEA-assisted operation in Zapopan, Jalisco, on Sunday (November 8). The alleged leader of the Los Rs faction of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel is wanted in the US on federal drug trafficking and firearms charges. Authorities also linked him to the killing of former Uruapan Mayor Carlos Manzo and 19 other people. The operation sparked an exchange of gunfire that left the suspect and a Mexican naval officer wounded.
