Navolato voluntary disarmament program collects weapons and grenades

A one-day voluntary disarmament event held in Navolato, Sinaloa, resulted in the surrender of 23 firearms and 18 grenades. The initiative was part of the 'Desarme Voluntario Sinaloa' preventive program aimed at increasing household safety.

One participant, who chose to remain anonymous, surrendered a firearm discovered among the belongings of a recently deceased father. The event was coordinated by the State Executive Secretariat of the State Public Security System (SESESP-CEPREVSIN) and the Navolato municipal government, with support from the Mexican Army, the National Guard, and the Navy. All surrendered artifacts were transferred to the Secretariat of National Defense (SEDENA) for immediate and secure destruction.
