(AP) Quote Mexican Naval authorities said Tuesday that fingerprints confirmed that the founder and chief commander of the ruthless Zetas drug cartel was killed yesterday in a firefight with Mexican marines. A strange new development, however, has led to a new search for the now-deceased Zetas boss, Heriberto Lazcano. According to accounts from two Mexican newspapers, a group of armed men broke into the funeral home where Lazcano’s body was placed and stole it. Coahuila Attorney General Homero Ramos says two men were killed by marines Sunday outside a baseball game in the town of Progreso. He says the fingerprints of one man matched the records of Lazcano, an army special forces deserter whose brutal paramilitary tactics helped define the devastating six-year war among Mexico’s drug gangs and authorities. Early Monday morning, Ramos said, a group of armed men raided the funeral home where the bodies were kept, and stole both corpses. Mexican news reports claim that law enforcement authorities had already collected fingerprints, photographs and other materials needed to identify the body. Funeral home representatives did not comment on the body theft and, in a statement released on Tuesday, Mexican Navy officials said it had turned the Zetas leader’s body over to a local prosecutor and would not make any further comments. The Zetas are presumed to be the second most powerful drug cartel operating in Mexico, next to Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán’s Sinaloa Cartel. Originally the armed, paramilitary wing of the Gulf Cartel, the Zetas broke away from their former bosses in the early 2000s and quickly rose to be arguably the second most dominant drug trafficking organization in Mexico. The group's violent tactics and flair for the dramatic -- bombings, beheadings, hanging bodies from overpasses -- have earned them a gruesome reputation throughout Mexico and has led the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to describe them as perhaps "the most technologically advanced, sophisticated and violent of these paramilitary enforcement groups."
