A conflict, as reported by the Mexican news outlet Adn40, erupted between armed civilians and elements of the army. The preliminary toll of this violent clash – three alleged criminals dead.
Witnesses to the chaos painted a chilling picture.
A video emerged showing two individuals taking refuge by the side of a truck while gunfire erupted across the deserted road. Bullets whizzed past, leaving their mark on the Reynosa-Pharr customs building.
A shredded bullet, a grim reminder of the conflict, was captured in a photo alongside a harrowing witness description – “bullets bouncing off the customs building.“
The Dark Underbelly of the Border
This violent incident sheds light on the deep-seated struggle for power and dominance among Mexico’s renowned gangs. These criminal enterprises are notorious for overseeing the illicit flow of drugs into the US, their rivalries over control of the border regions fierce and unyielding.
The Pharr-Reynosa bridge, a symbol of international cooperation, was transformed into a battleground for these merciless factions.

A video, shot from inside one of the bridge trucks, provides a heart-stopping view of the chaos. Mexican army vehicles whizzed past motorists cowering in their cars, the air filled with fear and the harsh sounds of gunfire.
Local reports suggest that this confrontation erupted following the alleged arrest of ‘La Pawa’, the regional leader of the criminal group, Los Zetas.
The Aftermath and Response
In response to the escalating violence and the looming threat of a potential immigrant wave following the lifting of Covid-19 border restrictions, President Joe Biden has announced his decision to deploy 1,500 troops to the US-Mexico border.
This 90-day deployment, primarily involving Marines, aims to bolster the US border patrol’s efforts. However, it has been clearly stated that these troops will not be engaged in direct law enforcement work.
