(CNN) -- A top Mexican drug trafficker has been arrested by Mexican police, authorities said Wednesday. Luis Rodriguez Olivera, alias "El Guero," was arrested at Mexico City's airport Tuesday, federal police said in a statement. The United States was offering a $5 million reward for information leading to Rodriguez's capture. Rodriguez, 39, is accused of money laundering and importing, possessing and distributing cocaine into the United States. According to Mexico's Ministry of Public Security, Rodriguez and his brothers Esteban, Daniel and Miguel were part of a criminal ring known as Los Gueritos, who smuggled drugs into the United States between 1996 and 2008. The crew worked under the leadership of Mexico's most-wanted fugitive, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, the leader of the Sinaloa cartel.
