Mexico arrests hitmen blamed for Acapulco slayings | Reuters: "The group is a splinter faction of the Beltran Leyva cartel, which has fragmented since Mexican marines killed its leader, Arturo Beltran Leyva, in December 2009, the federal police said in a statement. Police said the group's leader, Jose Lozano, was behind the 22 Acapulco murders.
The police did not provide other details or explain why the arrests, which occurred on Thursday, were not announced until Sunday.
Clashes between rival gangs seeking to control the flow of drugs through Acapulco have alarmed business leaders who worry the escalating violence will strangle the tourism industry"
