Cartel violence in Tijuana continues at an alarming rate in 2018 with 549 homicides registered in the first three months, according to government statistics.
A total of 184 killings were noted in March alone, according to local reports.
Breitbart Texas previously reported that one of the problems cited by the state attorney general’s office of Baja California is that most homicides go unsolved. Of 132 registered homicides to start 2018, only five resulted in arrests with a total of 11 suspects detained.
The bloodshed continues despite the deployment of 400 elements of the Mexican Army there to crack down on cartel violence plaguing the once-popular tourist destination.
Tijuana sits on the U.S. border with California, approximately 17 miles south of San Diego. A brief look at both cities reveals that San Diego has a population of 1.4 million compared to Tijuana’s 1.8 million. In 2016 and 2017 respectfully, Tijuana finished with 910 and 1,734 homicides while San Diego registered 50 and 34 for each year in straight comparisons, local journalists found at the time.
The cartel violence in Tijuana has been attributed to a resurgence of remnants from the Cártel de Los Arellano Félix, which is now operating under the name of Cártel Tijuana Nueva Generación (CTNG) and aligns with El Cártel de Jalisco Nueva Generación. These two criminal groups are engaged in a turf dispute with the Sinaloa Cartel. In some areas, rival factions within the Sinaloa Cartel are fighting for control of the lucrative street-level markets and valuable routes leading into the United States.

MEXICANS ARE THE

"A group of cartel gunmen fighting for
control of a Mexican coastal state cut out the heart of one of their living
victims while another was beheaded. The violence took place not far from the
beach resort cities of Acapulco and Ixtapa Zihuatanejo, Guerrero."
Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute has testified
before a Congressional committee that in 2004, 95% of all outstanding warrants
for murder in Los Angeles were for illegal aliens; in 2000, 23% of all Los
Angeles County jail inmates were illegal aliens and that in 1995, 60% of Los
Angeles’s largest street gang, the 18th Street gang, were illegal aliens. Granted, those statistics are
old, but if you talk to any California law enforcement officer, they will tell
you it’s much worse today.
