A Sinaloa cartel boss wanted in the United States in connection with the deaths of 11 migrants in 2009 was arrested by the Federal Police, the Mexican Public Safety Secretariat said.

Fidel Mancinas Franco, who ran the cartel’s operations in the northern border state of Sonora, was detained on Saturday, the secretariat said.

The suspect was captured by the Federal Police on a highway outside Cananea, a city in Sonora, and taken to Mexico City.
