Officials describe a coordinated push to disrupt cartel logistics, with suspects and evidence now in prosecutors’ custody.

Overview

  • Quintana Roo’s state police, working with the Navy, arrested Marcos Josué “N” and Ángel Roberto “N”, identified by authorities as alleged CJNG logistics operators in the state’s northern corridor.
  • Officials reported a cache in Quintana Roo that they called “historic,” including 44 firearms, 125 rifle magazines, grenades, silencers, drones, tactical gear and street-level drug packages.
  • The detainees and the seized arsenal from Quintana Roo were turned over to the Specialized Prosecutor’s Office for Drug Dealing (narcomenudeo) to determine criminal responsibility.
  • In Sinaloa’s El Guasimal, a joint deployment responding to a citizen report found five people dead after a firefight, detained nine armed suspects and secured weapons, ammunition and three vehicles.
  • In a separate Culiacán action, the interagency group freed 20 adults allegedly held captive and seized an AR-15, a signal jammer, tactical vests, cellphones, drugs and a stolen Hyundai Tucson.
