Coast Guard captures Mexican drug lord Arellano Felix at sea
The Coast Guard seized the fishing boat near Baja California arresting Francisco Javier Arellano Felix, once head of a major cartel. Officials say the takedown hinders the Smugglers and signals a strong blow to the organization, though more work remains. The cartel’s leadership was fractured by past killings and imprisonments, leaving uncertain succession.
