SAA event in Mexico on Mon 27th April 2026

Police caught up with him after he committed an armed robbery in Tijuana. José Braulio “N”, 30, was arrested inside the drainage canal after threatening his victim and stealing their cell phone on the Vía Rápida Poniente (Westbound Fast Lane). The man fled after the attack, but the description gave him away: brown pants, black sweatshirt. Upon arriving at the scene, officers entered the wet concrete of the canal and located him a few meters ahead. They stopped him and, during a search, found a 9mm pistol with five rounds of ammunition and the stolen phone. The La Mesa area is no stranger to this pattern: quick robberies, escape into the canal, and handguns used to intimidate. This dynamic repeats itself as long as the flow of vehicles and pedestrians facilitates the getaway. This time, he didn't manage to disappear.
