Good morning. Lots going on today. We’ll start with Sonora. According to an FBI source earlier today:
First, the Sinaloa Federation finally moved in on El Gilo in the hills between Sáric and Tubutama last night, about 7 p.m. The Mexican military has seized ten armored vehicles. There are reports of 30 to 40 people dead, with Guzmán’s people having the upper hand. The Mexican Army is currently in the area. Apparently, there was an accident involving Mexican Army soldiers unrelated to the firefight, who were enroute to the Sáric/Tubutama area. Apparently several soldiers died in the accident.

THE BORDER REPORT
Milenio and El Universal are both confirming that Nacho Coronel Villarreal died in a shootout with Mexican federal forces a short time ago. El Universal has a much more detailed preliminary story, saying the Feds had moved in on six houses searching for Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán in Jalisco when they engaged Coronel.
THE BORDER REPORT
I honestly thought she would go the other way, but U.S. District Court Judge Susan Bolton struck down four of the key provisions of Senate Bill 1070 this morning, marginalizing what’s been construed as the toughest state enforcement of federal immigration law in the country. The four key elements she blocked are:
1. Arizona will not be able to require cops to check the immigration status of someone they stop or arrest.
2. The segment of the law making it a crime to fail to carry immigration papers.
