UNAM Identifies Suspects in False Bomb Threats as Most Campuses Resume In‑Person Activity

Investigators traced the hoax messages to at least two people, signaling a turn from disruption to accountability.

Overview

  • UNAM said at least two suspected authors of the false bomb alerts were identified through FGJCDMX and Cyber Police probes and have been cited to declare.
  • Federal officials reported that all bomb warnings checked so far were unfounded, with coordination ongoing between the university and security agencies.
  • After a staggered restart, 39 of 45 schools reopened in person, though several sites were re‑evacuated and some faculties shifted classes online following new alerts.
  • A judge issued an arrest warrant for 19‑year‑old Lex Ashton N. in the CCH Sur homicide, which remains unexecuted as he is hospitalized.
  • UNAM and CCH Sur representatives agreed on security upgrades including cameras, improved lighting, panic buttons and tighter access controls, as university leaders also clarified that an Army truck’s entry to CU was a route error and a National Guard patrol responded to a 911 call.
