[Notes:nat sound of gun shots]
A SATURDAY SHOOT-OUT IN THE STREETS OF TIJUANA, MEXICO ENDED WITH THE CAPTURE OF 'THE DOCTOR' - THE REPUTED LEADER OF A DRUG CARTEL.
THE U-S STATE DEPARTMENT ONCE OFFERED $5 MILLION FOR THE CAPTURE OF 52-YEAR-OLD EDUARDO ARELLANO (ah-ray-AH'-noh) FELIX (FAY-leeks). MEXICAN OFFICIALS SAY THAT INTERPOL AND AMERICAN OFFICIALS WERE SEARCHING 180 COUNTRIES FOR HIM. BUT FELIX AND HIS 11-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER WERE FOUND JUST SOUTH OF THE U.S. BORDER IN A MIDDLE CLASS NEIGHBORHOOD -- LEFT WITH DOZENS OF BULLETS ON THE GROUND AFTER THEIR CAPTURE.
[Notes:USE OFFICIAL NATS]
TIJUANA USED TO BE THE GANG'S HOME TURF. MORE RECENTLY IT'S BECOME A FOCAL POINT OF INCREASING VIOLENCE BETWEEN RIVAL ORGANISED CRIME GROUPS WHO OFTEN OUT-GUN AUTHORITIES. OFFICIALS BLAME MUCH OF THE VIOLENCE IN THE CITY ON FIGHTING BETWEEN THE FAMILY-RUN CARTEL AND A BREAKAWAY GROUP.
THE ARELLANO FELIX CARTEL EMERGED IN THE 1980'S AS A DRUG TRAFFICKING POWERHOUSE ACROSS THE U-S BORDER FROM SAN DIEGO. IT'S BEEN WEAKENED IN RECENT YEARS AS LEADERS WERE KILLED OR CAPTURED, INCLUDING SEVERAL BROTHERS FROM THE ARELLANO FELIX FAMILY.
OFFICIALS BELIEVE THAT EDUARDO'S SISTER ENEDINA (en-NAH'-di-nah) ARELLANO FELIX IS STILL PART OF THE DRUG CLAN'S LEADERSHIP.
