MEXICO: Reynosa, A City Under Seige And In Fear, Where Narco Terrorists Rule.

LATIMES/ Tracy Wilkinson/ Long Feature/
    Wilkinson describes the pain of living in Reynosa, a border city of 700,000 that is a virtual "prison camp" controlled by drug thugs.
   There the Gulf cartel fights the Zetas and the Mexican army fights them both.
   There drug traffickers patrol its streets, set-up roadblocks, harass citizens, gun down enemies and even censor the news.       
   Many have fled there, but others stay and cope.
