Cartel violence erupts in Michoacán, Jalisco and Guanajuato in a new wave of attacks

  • Brutal violence including narco-blockades erupted Wednesday across 26 municipalities in Michoacán, plus areas in Jalisco and Guanajuato.
  • Coordinated federal operations seeking to capture a high-ranking criminal leader triggered the widespread violent reaction from the Jalisco New Generation Cartel.

  • Two police officers died during the incidents, which Minister García Harfuch attributed to "a cartel conflict between rival gangs."
  • While order was restored in Guanajuato Wednesday night, the events demonstrate the cartel's willingness to react violently to government pressure.
