From The United States Department of Justice

Yesterday law enforcement arrested four Sinaloa Cartel-linked defendants – all members of the same family, three of them illegal aliens from Mexico – who are charged in a 29-count federal grand jury indictment alleging they trafficked fentanyl, pound quantities of methamphetamine, and firearms, including so-called “ghost guns” lacking serial numbers.

The following defendants were arrested today: • José Luis Salazar-Cruz, 44, a.k.a. “Oso,” of Lancaster, an illegal alien from Mexico; • Alfonso Salazar, 46, a.k.a. “Pirate,” of Lancaster, an illegal alien from Mexico; • José Manuel Salazar, 22, a.k.a. “Lil Oso,” of Lancaster; and • Jorge Humberto Salazar, 43, a.k.a. “Sharky,” of Hesperia; an illegal alien from Mexico.
