Teusaquillo security: 700 officers deploy Plan Avispa

Authorities in the Teusaquillo locality have deployed Plan Avispa, a security strategy involving more than 700 personnel. The operation focuses on strategic points to increase institutional presence and protect residents and merchants.

Key activities include physical inspections of individuals and background checks for drivers of cars and motorcycles. Officers are also verifying vehicle documentation to identify stolen vehicles or altered license plates. The initiative aims to deter high-impact crimes such as robbery, illegal firearm discharge, and drug trafficking.

Mobile checkpoints have been established in high-traffic areas, including Park Way, Galerías, and 53rd Street. The deployment specifically prioritizes commercial corridors, restaurants, bars, and parks to ensure public safety and free movement.
