El Diablo legend ends with arrest in Costa Rica
Costa Rican police forces successfully arrested "El Diablo," one of the country's most wanted drug traffickers, during an operation that resulted in the killing of another gang leader and injuries to eight police officers. The operation took place in the Rio Frio area of Heredia province, following a raid targeting a meeting of criminal groups, which involved exchanges of gunfire with over 2,500 shots fired. This move comes amid rising drug trafficking activities in Costa Rica, despite its reputation as one of Central America's more stable countries. The United States offered a $500,000 reward for information leading to his capture, and the U.S. Embassy approved the operation.
