Beauty queen remanded in gun probe
A Mexican beauty queen arrested in a truck filled with weapons has been remanded in custody as police probe possible drug trafficking and gun charges.
The Attorney General's Office says Laura Zuniga would be held for 40 days while police decide whether to charge her.
Seven men arrested with her are also being held pending the investigation.
Prosecutors say Zuniga was dating one of the men, Angel Orlando Garcia. They say he is a top member of the powerful Juarez drug cartel.
The couple were travelling with six alleged bodyguards near the colonial city of Guadalajara when soldiers stopped their two trucks at a checkpoint on Monday.
