Capture of drug lord El Chapo Mexican marines in a shootout

This stunning footage has emerged of the bloody battle that led to the capture of the world's most wanted drug lord.

The video, which first aired Monday by Mexican TV channel Televisa, shows Mexican marines surrounding Joaquin 'El Chapo' Guzman and his henchmen at their hideaway in the northern city of Los Mochis.

By the time marines raided the house, El Chapo was gone - disappeared down a tunnel hidden behind a mirror - but they later found him when rains forced him to go above ground.
