Well it certainly is possible the guy was involved with the cartels. It has long been a concern in law enforcement circles that criminal gangs have been infiltrating the military to gain military combat training, which they then pass on to the rest of the gang. It was also blatantly obvious that this was a police raid, and one has to wonder why the suspect grabbed a weapon (unless he was already carrying it which is also suspicious).
From the video though, I do not think the SWAT team acted appropriately once the shooting started, in that they were not firing in a controlled manner, but were more panic shooting. The entry was also very sloppy, suggesting they have been doing far to many of these and had gotten lax.
