Chivis Note: I have edited my original post, I have heard from Dr Mireles who says they are in position and he looks forward to taking Lazaro Cardenas it has not yet happened. He says, 18 Templarios were arrested, 4 killed, 3 wounded at the scene, and 5 fled. He happened to be in the vicinity by chance he had a meeting until 4PM when the call went out from his "compañeros" for help. The autodefensas union, through Dr Mireles wants it known that this advance was not authorized. Each advance into cites are planned for and voted on before being carefully executed, this advance was not. The ADs advanced independently on the initiative of the Caleta autodefensas. Unfortunately, because of what transpired, the advance planned for today will be postponed.

CAM Autodefensas led by Dr Mirles (CAM is their acronym ) continues their surge of taking control of cities and communities before the May 10th imposed disarmament date set by the state government.
Playa Azul and La Mira are two additional cities now controlled by CAM, AD’s.
However one group of CAMof Caleta de Campos, encountered a group at a blockade that were “False Autodefensas” who call themselves “Occupation La Mira”. As CAM form approached the blockade the La Mira group began shooting initiating a 20 minute clash that resulted in at least 5 dead, 4 at the scene and one in route to the hospital, 2 seriously injured, and 10 arrested.
Grillonautus is reporting that the La Mira group were Templarios.

CAM held the 10 for federal forces who arrived and took control of the situation.

The shootout began at 5PM in the town of Chuquiapan, in Lázaro Cárdenas. As the CAM autodefensas advance, the entire port area is heavily flooded with CAM autodefensas, and federal forces, including the Marina, who are accompanying CAM as they work to take control of cities. No state agencies are involved.
While the Michoacán commissioner Alfredo Castillo has released a schedule of the initial process of disarmament or registration, beginning on Tomorrow April 28th, for its part the EPN administration spokesman Osario Chong insists they have no plans to disarm and have not issued an ultimatum. He further states, in speaking of working with autodefensas, “we have accomplished more than we could have anticipated, it has been surprising”.
One can't help be wary of anything Chong says in the affirmative with respect to CAM. He has spoken out of both sides his mouth in the past, but it was encouraging to CAM.
There is a perception of a hidden message in Chong's press release. He said the government is all about adhering to agreements and if there is something unforeseen to consider then it will be addressed. Those words seem without boundary or limit.

Michoacán police force "90% in collusion with Templarios"

This week Rep. Sergio Chavez , who was present at the meetings with both federal and Michoacán state officials said that Monte Alejandro Rubido ,national security commissioner said "more than 90% of state and local police elements of Michoacán were in collusion with the criminal group of the 'Caballeros Templarios’.
However, it is logical to think that if the percentage is 90% it must be 100%, as an honest officer would not be allowed to work in an environment so permeated and controlled by Templarios. In the last year of the Calderon administration, Rubido’s counterpart issued a statement that every city along Mexico’s north border , is in collusion with cartels. 100% of all cities. Michoacán is no different.
After this event, supporters of CAM established a command post in Chuquiapan and later a large group drove to this city and took control of it, as well as Playa Azul, which already has commenced several patrols on different streets and avenues.
Elements of the Navy, the Army and the Federal Police escorted members of CAM, the latter who indicated that their progress will continue for the 113 municipalities of Michoacán and stated that in the coming hours will meet with “Lazarenses” to and establish the Local Self Governing.
