Dramatic GoPro Video Records 'El Chapo' Raid

  • 9 years ago
Incredible GoPro footage takes you inside the gunfire-heavy raid that ended drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman's six months on the run.
Seventeen elite unit Mexican Marines launched their assault on the house in the city of Los Mochis at 4:40 a.m., "Primero Noticias" said.
Eventually the marines determined that the only bedroom on the first floor was Guzman's and they began pounding on the walls and moving furniture, finding hidden doors, the show said.
His room had a king-sized bed, bags from fashionable clothing stores, bread and cookie wrappers, and medicine including injectable testosterone, syringes, antibiotics and cough syrups, the show said.
The escape tunnel was fully lit and led to an access door for the city sewage system, "Primero Noticias" said, adding that Guzman had at least a 20-minute head start on the Marines.
