Overview

• Luis Ángel “N”, a man in his early 20s, died from a gunshot to the head during a Morelos SSPC operation late Monday in the Patios de la Estación neighborhood of Cuernavaca.
• The SSPC reports the shooting followed a vehicle inspection that escalated into a confrontation, and it says a white Seat Ibiza and a short firearm were secured at the scene.
• Three officers from patrol unit A-01194 and their service weapons were placed at the state prosecutor’s office to give statements and undergo forensic examinations.
• Witnesses contend the victim was recording the intervention, claim an officer seized his phone and fired at close range, and note only one shot was heard; FGE personnel reported finding a single casing.
• The FGE opened a criminal investigation, requested neighborhood surveillance video, and the SSPC’s internal affairs launched a file, as hundreds marched and blocked roads, leading the state government to meet residents and commit to a follow-up session that includes indemnification talks.
