  • ICE announced a $10 million bounty for information leading to the arrest or conviction of Jesús Alfredo Guzmán Salazar, whom the agency describes as armed and dangerous.
  • Agents highlight Guzmán Salazar as a leader of Los Chapitos who, with his brothers, assumed control of the El Chapo faction of the Sinaloa Cartel.
  • Authorities publicized the offer on X and provided a dedicated tip line at 520-335-7315 to collect leads.
  • US prosecutors have charged Guzmán Salazar with fentanyl trafficking in the Southern District of New York and with importing other drugs in the Northern District of Illinois.
