Overview
- The city prosecutor's office said late Tuesday that two dogs died of possible poisoning and opened an investigation for maltrato or cruelty to animals.
- Investigators recovered multiple suspicious baits in and around Parque España, including a piece of longaniza containing a blue pill, and counts of affected animals and baits vary across reports.
- Police of Investigation units, forensic specialists and veterinary experts are collecting evidence and witness statements while C5 surveillance footage is being reviewed for suspects.
- The Alcaldía Cuauhtémoc deployed inspection teams, the Brigada de Vigilancia Animal increased patrols and officials offered legal help to pet owners while warning people to keep animals from eating items found on the ground.
- Laboratory analysis of seized baits is pending and will be key to linking substances to specific deaths, a step that will shape whether criminal charges are filed and how public safety measures in Condesa are tightened.
