Alleged drug lord Ryan Wedding sought injunction to prevent arrest a year ago, legal documents show

Longtime fugitive Ryan Wedding sought a court order to prevent his arrest in Mexico's Sinaloa state nearly a year before he was finally taken into U.S. custody last week, according to Mexican legal records obtained by CBC News. The documents suggest the Canadian, who is accused of leading a cocaine-smuggling network linked to the Sinaloa cartel, believed Mexican authorities were closing in on him in early 2025.
