Mexico kills Gulf cartel boss in Reynosa shootout

Mexico City, Apr 22 (Reuters) Mexican marines killed a drug gang leader in a gun battle that raged through the night across the border city of Reynosa and left dozens of burned vehicles in its wake, the government said today.
Reynosa, just south of Texas, is in Tamaulipas state, which has long been a major transit point for traffickers moving drugs into the United States. Turf wars between the rival Gulf Cartel and Zetas gangs have racked the state for years, and in recent years some of Mexico's worst drug violence has hit Tamaulipas.
Marines also killed a lower-level Zetas gang member in a separate firefight in the state capital of Ciudad Victoria, a security official said on Saturday on condition on anonymity since he was not authorized to speak to the media.
