Three dead in Mexican city after gang arrest sparks

Gang arrest

Gunfights and blockades of burning vehicles broke out Friday in the border city of Reynosa leaving at least three dead, Mexican authorities said.

The government of the border state of Tamaulipas said federal police and soldiers had “detained members of a criminal gang that operates in Reynosa”, an apparent reference to Gulf cartel members.


“Members of the same criminal group reacted (to the arrests) by attacking federal forces and carrying out blockades in the city,” the statement said.

Officials said roads in the city were blocked with vehicles set on fire by gunmen.

Were you referring to ..."*LOCAL* Rumors and Criminal Activity" or some thing else from your memory. EH

there's mostly nonlocal crime shit in that forum including old stories from reynosa.

Wow!
Breaking news reports of narco violence in Tamaulipas.
I guess arbon is filling in for easylife/sundown while he's on vacation.

Arbon is on a permanent vacation...mentally.

sparks.... what CPU does win 7 (32&64) need to run [hevc x265] (the new compression).

Arbon,I'm curious,what was the point of your OP?
Were you unaware of the cartel violence in Tamaulipas that's been going on for years?
Did you think it was a "scoop"?

HEVC as you can understand currently is not very widely used, but we do think that this will change in the coming years. It would be wise to anticipate on this when you are considering building a HTPC. Another challenge is the fact that
**no current graphic chip for PCs sports a H.265 decoder, which means that the CPU will have to do all the decoding.**

I have a Win7 laptop with Spanish OS so don't use it much. Prefer this old XP machine. Don't stay up on new stuff anymore

Well we saw the international travel warning for that part of the border, and also the travel warning for TJ but that seemed to be just a rumor.
