The U.S. Embassy issued a security warning to U.S. citizens traveling and residing in Mexico on Tuesday, following arrests made north of the border earlier in the day.
The press release read: “This morning, U.S. federal law enforcement agents arrested associates and family members of a senior Zeta member, and seized property and assets within the United States. These arrests could result in some form of retaliation and/or anti-American violence. Given the history and resources of this violent TCO, the U.S. Embassy urges U.S. citizens to maintain a low profile and a heightened sense of awareness.”
