Elements of the Interinstitutional Operations Base intercepted a Ram 2500 pickup truck after a ground pursuit that began in the town of Villa Juárez, Navolato, and continued to the vicinity of Campo El Porvenir in Costa Rica, Culiacán. The coordinated deployment between the Mexican Army and the State Preventive Police resulted in the capture of two armed civilians who were driving the de facto armored vehicle in an agricultural area that has seen a strong presence of criminal cells subordinate to local factions of the Sinaloa Cartel. An official source, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed the neutralization of this operational objective, which impacts the tactical equipment of urban networks in the central coastal region. The detainees were immediately turned over to the appropriate authorities. Seized items: - 1 Barrett .50 caliber rifle - Long guns - Magazines - Ammunition - 1 Ram 2500 pickup truck, 2024 model (reported stolen in Arizona, USA)
