Tony Tormenta's "Escorpiones".

Tony Tormenta's "Escorpiones" detonated more than 300 grenades in the day that they attempted to rescue Tony Tormenta leader of the Gulf Cartel. The "Escorpiones" where created to combat Los Zetas. The Mexican Navy(Marines) informed that the body guards of Tony Tormenta the "Escropiones" managed to save 2 times in an attempt by the Marines to capture him. This group managed to form an operation against the Marines in Matamoros in Friday(4 years ago) an operation that included snipers, narco-blockades, attacks of distraction, grenades and RPGs to save Tony Tormenta for the 3rd time. The "Escorpiones" are made up of ex-police officers including municipal, state, and judicial police.

Didn't Chapo had a similar security ring? I heard or remember reading that Chapo had 600 ex military members with 3 rings of security when rumors of Chapo's location first started to appear. Also Arturo Beltran Leyva allegedly order La Barbie to dispatch 400 sicarios to rescue him when he was cornered in Cuernavaca.
