Overview
- Pesquería police confiscated 19 kilograms of prohibited pyrotechnics in Colinas de Santa Engracia under Operativo Centinela and turned the material over to federal prosecutors.
- The Federal Attorney General’s Office assumed jurisdiction over the Pesquería blast because explosives crimes fall under federal competence, authorities said.
- Nuevo León’s decree forbids the storage, sale, purchase and use of fireworks statewide through September 2027, and the state says it will issue no endorsements as SEDENA is the permitting authority under federal law.
- State Civil Protection barred fireworks during pilgrimages to the Basilica of Guadalupe, warned of administrative and criminal penalties, and urged the public to report sales and stockpiles through emergency lines.
- The late‑November home explosion in Los Olmos left four people dead, several injured and damaged dozens of houses, while other jurisdictions such as Morelia and Baja California are stepping up inspections and seizures targeting irregular and online sales.
