Mexican police arrested a suspected member of a drug ring as an accomplice in the kidnap-murder of two American tourists. The Americans, Alberto Radelat, 32, of Fort Worth, and John Walker, 35, of Minneapolis, disappeared Jan. 31 in Guadalajara. Police said the suspect, Luis Gonzalez Ontiveras, is an associate of drug-smuggling kingpins Rafael Caro Quintero and Ernest Fonseca, accused of the February killing of a U.S. drug agent. Police believe Radelat and Walker were slain after being mistaken for U.S. drug agents. Their bodies were found in June.
