Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa has announced the arrest of Adolfo Macías, also known as 'Fito,' the leader of the powerful 'Los Choneros' gang. Fito, Ecuador's most-wanted criminal, had escaped from prison earlier in 2024 amidst widespread violence. The Ecuadorian government has formally requested Fito's extradition to the United States. The arrest marks a significant development in Ecuador's ongoing efforts to combat organized crime and restore order. Further details surrounding the arrest, including its location and circumstances, are expected to be released shortly. The 'Los Choneros' gang has been implicated in a range of criminal activities, including drug trafficking and extortion.
