A cartel-connected Mexican official who was the target of a police operation evaded arrest by flying away in an unregistered helicopter with no tail numbers.
During the escape, cartel members called a series of bomb threats to various government buildings including a school and a hospital leading to the death of two patients.
On December 1, the day of the escape, Gulf Cartel associates called four locations claiming there was a bomb in each building and it was going to go off. One of the buildings was a government-run clinic called Family Medicine Unit 24. A second building was the main IMSS hospital. A third building was the Mante City Hall. And, a fourth building was a local school called CBTIS which had 1,800 students inside.
Two hours after the initial call, a helicopter without any identifying tail markings landed in an area called Irrigation Park next to some soccer fields and 30 yards away from the water district offices. Law enforcement sources consulted by Breitbart Texas revealed that former water board president Juan Francisco Leal Guerra was forced to resign after serving only one year after receiving threats from the Matamoros faction of the Gulf Cartel.
