Guzman is on the run after his second prison escape in July, when he fled through a mile-long tunnel underneath his prison cell. Thirty four people have been arrested in connection to his escape. (Video via Government of Mexico)
Mexico has offered a $3.8 million reward for information leading to his arrest, and the U.S. has offered $5 million.
