SAA event in Mexico on Fri 26th June 2026

A joint operation in southeastern Morelia, Michoacán, resulted in the capture of Alfredo "N," alias "El Sierra 2," who was apprehended along with a woman in an operation following the recent arrest of Ernesto Rafael "N," alias "El Sierra 1," according to judicial intelligence reports. The deployment on the ground, where our reporter in the area confirmed the perimeter cordon with armored vehicles blocking access to residential areas, revealed the level of danger posed by the suspects, who were caught red-handed with weapons and illicit substances. The total seizure includes an M4-type assault rifle, a 5.56 caliber magazine loaded with 9 rounds, 27.26 grams of methamphetamine, and a vehicle with its identification numbers and serial numbers completely altered. This coordinated action between the FGE, SSP, Mexican Army, National Guard and SSPC places the detainees under federal jurisdiction to determine their responsibility in high-impact crimes and violations of the arms law.
