BBC reported that three security force members have died in clashes in the state of Sinaloa after the arrest of a son of notorious Mexican drug kingpin “El Chapo”.
Ovidio Guzmán-López – himself alleged to be a leader of his father’s former cartel – was captured in Culiacán after a six-month surveillance operation.
Furious gang members set up road blocks, set fire to vehicles and attacked a local airport.
Two planes were hit by gunfire – one while preparing to take off.
More than 100 flights were cancelled at three Sinaloa airports.
The state governor said earlier 18 people had been admitted to hospital.
