Overview
- FOEP officers found three pistols, five assault rifles, and a submachine gun in semi-open boxes off the Guadalajara–Ciudad Guzmán highway near the Techaluta crossing.
- Six ballistic vests and multiple magazines were recovered with the weapons, all without ammunition, and the cache was secured for evidentiary processing.
- Prosecutors detained two Techaluta municipal police officers and a taxi driver in the case, with authorities not yet confirming whether the implicated commander is among them.
- Investigators say a caller posing as a municipal oversight official on December 3 convinced a commander to deposit 170,000 pesos at an ATM in Zacoalco de Torres and to send police weapons by taxi.
- Accounts differ on whether the firearms were sent toward Zapopan or delivered in Zacoalco, and the FGR was notified as the state continues added patrols in Techaluta.
