. >>> hi this morning from mexico city. mexico city is the epicenter right now of a massive search in our top story on "the rundown," the search for one of the most notorious and dangerous drug traffickers in history. this country is indeed ground zero in this massive nrtd national search for joaquin el chapo guzman. he pulled off a daring escape from a maximum security prison about 35 miles southwest of the mexican capital saturday night raising a lot of questions about how something like this could happen not once but for a second time. let's get the latest now from mark potter near the prison where el chapo escaped. mark, what an incredible escape story this is. >> absolutely. almost like a movie, jose. behind me is the maximum security prison you were talking about. this is the one where chappo guzman escaped over the weekend in a mile-long tunnel a sophisticated tunnel. it actually ran parallel to this wall on the other side of the prison. to a house, that's where the tunnel began. they tunnelled in. this is a major em

this time he escaped just west of mexico city. prison officials said guards performed a routine check of camera feeds and noticed guzman was missing on saturday evening. at 5'6" mexican authorities believe el chapo, spanish for shorty, fit through a small hole in the shower of his cell. a vertical passage with stairs and then a tunnel stretching nearly a mile. it infuriated u.s. lawmakers. they wanted him extradited. they questioned the ability for mexican officials to keep him behind bars. >> it's estimated he may have ordered the murders of 10,000 people. it's not somebody playing around with prison officials. he pretty much controls what he wants to do. they go along with it. they look the other way to keep their families alive. >> guzman got out by way of an elaborate underground escape route complete with electricity, lightening and track for a motorcycle and even ventilation. investigators swarmed a half built house at the other end but guzman was nowhere in sight. now two-time escapee broke out of prison in a laundry cart i

that is the rural police force and has the backing of mexico city. across the border, that's the demarcation line, an area they don't control. >> beyond the line and up in the mountains new cartels and vigilante groups are forming. the violence followed. december 16th, tensions between two rival groups erupted in a gun battle captured on amateur video. >>> one of the leaders in that battle was this man. who has organised militias in an effort to beat back the cartels. >> we had to defend ourselves. and the questions forces that we created were created to fight because we can't work with the cartels. they controlled everything. >> this was one of 11 people killed, dying at the hands of those loyal to a vigilante known assel americano. he earnt the nickname after spending several years living in the united states. while it's not clear if the american came to mexico like el salvador, there's concern if the kids are not better integrated into the schools, they could add to the problem plaguing the region, as deportations rise, the ranks of america's lost
