According to details ABC News received from Mexican officials. Around 2:35 AM: Guzmán was taken in restraints by two prison guards on a routine cell transfer.

Authorities claim to have recovered several automatic weapons, two armored vehicles, eight long guns, one handgun and a rocket-propelled grenade launcher.
