JoaquĆn 'El Chapo' Guzman has been helicoptered out of New York City and is being transferred to the high-security prison in Colorado where he will serve a life sentence.
The Mexican drug kingpin was spotted boarding a chopper at the Wall Street helipad in lower Manhattan at around 3am Friday as a number of heavily-armed guards and more than a dozen NYPD squad cars stood to watch.
The helicopter transported Guzman to Floyd Bennet Field in Brooklyn, where he was placed on a plane bound for the United States Penitentiary Administrative Maximum Facility in Florence, Colorado.
Commonly known as ADX, the fortress is the only federal super-maximum prison in the US.
Guzman, 62, is gearing up to spend the remainder of his life at the prison that's home to America's most notorious criminals.
