Security forces operating in the southern state of Chiapas successfully detained ten individuals linked to criminal organizations during two targeted enforcement actions conducted in Tuxtla Gutiérrez and Huixtla. According to official reports released by the State Attorney General's Office of Chiapas, the operations form part of ongoing regional security strategies aimed at curbing lawlessness and dismantling organized crime networks within the state.
In the capital city of Tuxtla Gutiérrez, law enforcement officers apprehended six alleged members of the Sinaloa Cartel following a high-speed vehicular pursuit through municipal thoroughfares. Officers intercepted the suspects and established a security perimeter, securing the area without reported casualties among bystanders or law enforcement personnel. Official reports confirmed the seizure of several items from the vehicle, including:
- High-caliber assault rifles and ammunition
- Military-grade tactical gear and ballistic vests
- Multiple stolen vehicles utilized by the suspects
In a separate operation carried out in the municipality of Huixtla, security elements intercepted four armed individuals during specialized patrol duties. Authorities confirmed the group comprised three Guatemalan nationals and one Mexican citizen. The arrests were conducted after law enforcement personnel identified suspicious activity, leading to immediate intervention and search procedures.
During the Huixtla operation, officers confiscated handguns, packaged illicit drugs intended for distribution, and homemade spike strips designed to compromise vehicle tires during vehicular pursuits. All ten suspects, alongside the seized weaponry, vehicles, and narcotics, were placed under the custody of the Attorney General's Office to determine their legal status and initiate corresponding judicial proceedings.
