The gunfire erupted after the arrest of a leader of one faction of the Northeast Cartel, the successor group to the old Zetas Cartel.
International Bridge No. 1 spans the Rio Grande River looking toward Laredo coming from the larger city of Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, Mexico. – Gunfire and burning vehicles in the Mexican border city of Nuevo Laredo led U.S. officials to close the U.S. consulate there and briefly shut down close border crossings Monday.
U.S Customs and Border Protection said that southbound traffic from Laredo, Texas, into Nuevo Laredo at the Juarez-Lincoln and Gateway to the Americas bridges was suspended, but re-opened early Monday morning. The suspect's nickname — “The Egg” — corresponds to Juan Gerardo Treviño, a nephew of imprisoned Zetas leader Miguel Angel Treviño.
