Overview
- The Fiscalía General de Justicia de la Ciudad de México confirmed on Tuesday that two dogs died from possible intoxication and opened a carpeta de investigación for maltrato or cruelty against animals.
- Police found a piece of longaniza with a blue pill during an inspection of Parque España and have preserved it as evidence for forensic testing by pericial and veterinary experts.
- Investigators are taking testimonies, reviewing C5 and private camera recordings, and conducting necropsies and toxicology analyses that remain pending to link specific baits to each animal death.
- The Alcaldía Cuauhtémoc, SSC, PAOT and animal-oversight teams have cordoned parts of the park, launched an extensive cleanup that includes replacing dog-area gravel, and warned owners to closely supervise pets and report suspicious items.
- Neighbors have reported additional blue-capsule baits near Atlixco and Veracruz, prompting expanded searches by residents and officials and raising the prospect that the threat is not limited to the park.
