GUADALAJARA, Mexico (AP) — School was canceled in several Mexican states and local and foreign governments alike warned their citizens to stay inside following the army’s killing of the leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, Nemesio Rub謠Oseguera Cervantes, “El Mencho,” and the violence it spurred. President Claudia Sheinbaum urged calm and authorities announced late Sunday they had cleared most of the more than 250 cartel roadblocks across 20 states. The White House, which confirmed U.S. intelligence support in the operation to capture Oseguera Cervantes, applauded Mexico’s army for taking down one of the most wanted criminals in both countries. The U.S. State Department had offered a reward of up to $15 million for information leading to El Mencho’s arrest.
Several airlines, including Fort Worth based American and Dallas based Southwest have canceled flights into Puerto Vallarta and other parts of Mexico.
