Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto announced Friday via Twitter that drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman has been captured.
Guzman nicknamed “Shorty” because of his height has escaped twice from Mexican custody. The first time was from a maximum-security prison in 2001, he reportedly hid in a laundry cart.
The the next time escaped was when he broke out of another maximum-security prison in Almoloya de Juarez through a mile-long underground tunnel in July.
