- Two local transport cooperatives will suspend service for one hour, from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m., before resuming normal operations.
- APEAM and numerous chambers and associations say they will shut operations and participate to call for stronger security, justice and action against extortion, kidnappings and killings.
- The state prosecutor identified the alleged gunman as Víctor Manuel “N”, 17, from Paracho, who was killed at the scene, and said tests showed gunshot residue as investigators probe multiple participants and possible organized-crime links, with CJNG previously named.
