Mexican authorities are blaming a captured Zetas drug cartel leader as being the mastermind behind an attack on an American Consulate in Monterrey.

The Mexican Army (SEDENA) captured Hector Raul Luna-Luna during an operation in Monterrey on Wednesday.

Authorities reported that Luna-Luna, who also goes by the nickname “El Tory”, is the head of the operations for the Zetas in the northern Mexican city.

Luna-Luna’s captured prompted a series of “narcoblockades” and chaos in Monterrey on Wednesday evening.

The Mexican Army reports that Luna-Luna is responsible for numerous attacks against military personnel and even an attack on the American Consulate in Monterrey.

Luna-Luna is expected to be prosecuted in Mexico City.
