Mexican army arrests 14-year-old suspected killer

CUERNAVACA, Mexico — Mexican officials have arrested a 14-year-old suspected of working as killer for a drug cartel.

A Mexican army official says the suspect was captured at the airport in Cuernavaca with his 16-year-old sister trying to catch a flight for the U.S. border.

The source said Friday that the boy nicknamed "El Ponchis" is 14 year old.

He was brought to a regional office of the Mexico's Attorney General's Office in Cuernavaca on Friday and told reporters there that he participated in at least four decapitations.

He says he was "drugged and under threat that if I didn't, they would kill me."
