Culiacán, Sin.- At around 10:30 a.m. this Sunday, June 2, the body of Eliseo Imperial, better known as ‘El Cheyo’ Ántrax, was released by the authorities of the State Attorney General’s Office, after personnel from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) of the United States of America arrived in the state to perform tests and confirm his identity.
The unit that transported the body of Cheyo Anthrax was a small panel van belonging to a well-known local funeral services company, which was escorted by a recent model navy blue suv with two people in it. The transfer was carried out in an agile manner and without ostentatious vehicles or luxuries, and there was no police movement.
Eliseo Imperial, about 40 years old, was shot and killed when he was in the seat of a white Chevrolet Colorado pickup truck, model 2012 with Sinaloa state plates, on the shoulder of the north-south lane of the free Mexico 15 international highway at the south exit of the city and in the vicinity of the yonke area.
The report of shots fired with long arms against the occupant of a white pickup truck on the aforementioned highway and in front of the gap that connects the Antorchista sector and El Ranchito, was registered at 2:40 in the afternoon of Thursday, May 30, and minutes later agents of the different police forces arrived at the site to confirm the report to find the unknown victim, who was lying on the driver’s seat and with multiple bullet impacts in the face and body.
Later, it was confirmed that the vehicle had dozens of bullet wounds in the bodywork and front window, as well as in one of the sides. Minutes later, relatives of the victim arrived at the site to confirm the identity of Eliseo Imperial, who in addition to having a reputation for engaging in illicit activities in regional corridos, had court orders in the United States where he was wanted by the justice system, which classified him as a high-ranking member of the Sinaloa Cartel.
