Cartel Gunfire Injures 13 Factory Workers near Texas Border Bridge

Thirteen factory workers riding a bus to work were injured after they were caught in cartel crossfire. The shootout took place a short distance from the international bridge that connects Reynosa with Pharr, Texas.

Two rival factions of the Gulf Cartel are clashing throughout the streets of Reynosa for regional control. In one of the most recent firefights, rival teams of gunmen were fighting outside the LG and Panasonic manufacturing plants not far from one of the international bridges when the bus full of workers was hit. According to information released to Breitbart Texas by the Tamaulipas government, the bus driver was moving along one of the city’s main avenues and did not notice the battle until he was almost in front of it. The driver tried to avoid the fight at a high speed but was caught in the middle of the two factions as they exchanged fire.  Of the 13 workers caught by the gunfire, two were listed in serious condition.
