The chief bodyguard to the eldest son of jailed Mexican drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman was killed in the northern coastal state of Sinaloa.

Mexico’s navy said on Saturday that troops killed Francisco Zazueta, suspected of helping launch an ambush of soldiers last year, during a shootout on Friday afternoon in the town of Badiraguato, a hotbed of support for the Sinaloa Cartel and not far from where Guzman grew up.
