(CNN) - One of the "probable masterminds" of the disappearance of 43 Mexican students was arrested Friday morning after being on the lam for more than two years, according to Mexican officials.

The announcement was made by Mexico's National Security Commission via Twitter.

&quot We) have executed the arrest warrant against Felipe Flores, former Iguala police chief," the commission tweeted.

The attorney general offered a reward of up to $2.5 million pesos (about $134,392 dollars) last year for any information that led to his capture.
