Overview

  • The men identified as Mario Lindoro Elenes (“Niño”) and Mario Alberto Lindoro Navidad (“El 7”) were detained in Zapopan on December 22, with official records noting arrests at 13:25 and 15:31 by FGR agents supported by the Mexican Army.
  • They were taken to the FGR delegation in Jalisco, underwent medical examinations, and remain in custody while their legal status is determined.
  • Authorities describe both as presumed financial operators linked to the Los Chapitos faction, a designation cited by multiple outlets from official briefings.
  • Search operations at residences in Zapopan yielded drugs, four handguns, ammunition, vehicles including high-end models, a motorcycle, phones, electronics, and cash, according to the federal security ministry.
  • The arrests followed days after the Mexico City killing of Óscar Noé Medina (“El Panu”), a top security lieutenant wanted by the DEA, with reporters also noting the discovery of operator Alan Gabriel Núñez’s body in Culiacán and a reported detention of Carlos Gabriel Reynoso (“El Pollo”).
