So here's the story of The New York Times about what has happened.

Mexican forces kill nation's most wanted cartel boss.

Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as El Mencho, was the head of the Jalisco New Generation cartel and widely regarded as one of the country's most violent criminal figures.

The Mexican government said it killed the nation's most wanted cartel boss on Sunday, a major victory in its new offensive against the country's criminal groups, and a move that could help reduce pressure from President Trump, who has been threatening strikes in Mexico.

Nemesio Osaguro Cervantes, known as El Mencho, was the longtime leader of one of Mexico's most powerful cartels, the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, and he was widely regarded as

He presided over a criminal enterprise that expanded rapidly over the past decade, producing and selling drugs and extorting local businesses.

He also built a reputation for brazen attacks on security forces and terrorizing communities across the country.

Mexican security forces led an Operation Sunday to capture Mr. Rosseguro in Tapalpa, a town of about 20,000 in the western coastal state of Jalisco, where his cartel was founded and based, the Mexican government said.

At least seven cartel members were killed during the operation.

Mr. Rosseguro and two other cartel operatives were seriously injured in the operation and died while in transport to Mexico City for medical attention, according to the Mexican government.

Mr. Osagaro's killing set off a swift outbreak of violence across Mexico.

In at least six states, including Jalisco, residents and the local authorities reported that burning vehicles were blocking streets, a common practice by drug cartels.

The state of Jalisco said it had suspended public transportation in some areas and warned hotels to instruct their guests to remain inside.

The state of Nayarit canceled classes on Monday.

The U.S.

government warned its citizens to shelter in place until further notice in parts of five states, Jalisco, Tamaulipas, Miochecan, Guero, and Nuevo León.

Various airlines issued travel advisories or halted flights.

Some of the violence occurred in Guadalajara, Jalisco's capital, a hub of 1.4 million people that is a host city for this year's World Cup.
