Drug Lord taken into custody

A wanted fugitive who was the subject of a nationwide manhunt by the FBI since July of 2005 was brought back from Mexico and taken into custody late Tuesday afternoon at O’Hare Airport. Valentino Sanchez, 33,was arrested in a secure area in a lower-level terminal area at O’Hare, the police on-scene said. The government offered a 10,000 dollar reward for Sanchez's arrest. Sanchez is accused of overseeing the distribution of wholesale quantities of cocaine in the city and suburbs of Chicago.

Reflection: This article was very interesting because the man was caught in Guadalajara Mexico and he was taken into custody in an O'Hare airport terminal. And it amazes me that he has been wanted for 5 years.

Questions:
How high up on the wanted list was he?
What was he doing when he was taken into custody?
