On the night of 29 July 2026, seven armed, masked men broke into the home of Mexican influencer Karely Ruiz in the Las Puentes neighbourhood of San Nicolás de los Garza, Nuevo León. The intruders assaulted Ruiz’s husband, DJ Jhon Echeverry, striking him in the head, and stole roughly 20 000 pesos in cash, jewelry valued at about 200 000 pesos, and electronic devices. Ruiz, her husband and their one‑year‑old daughter escaped physical injury. Ruiz posted on Instagram confirming the family’s safety, thanked supporters, and pledged to cooperate with authorities. She condemned media outlets for publishing her address and denied accusations that the robbery was staged.

The investigation by the Fiscalía General de Justicia de Nuevo León and the Secretaría de Seguridad Pública continued without arrests. On 4 August 2026, a suspect identified as Guillermo “N”, 30, was detained in Escobedo after forensic analysis linked his fingerprints to the robbery. He was placed under a control judge while authorities pursue additional gang members. Part of the stolen jewelry has been recovered, and Ruiz and Echeverry said they will release security‑camera footage to counter claims that the attack was fabricated. The case remains under active investigation.
