Following an armed confrontation in Acatlán de Osorio involving Puebla state police and suspects targeting cargo theft, the Oaxaca State Attorney General's Office (FGEO) denied that its agents were involved in the shootout. Although an abandoned vehicle containing Oaxaca State Investigation Agency (AEI) branded clothing was found at the scene, the FGEO stated no staff were assigned to that area at the time. Subsequently, law enforcement conducted simultaneous searches in San Miguel Panixtlahuaca. During these operations, which were supported by the Mexican Secretariat of National Defense (SEDENA), the Secretariat of the Navy (SEMAR), and the National Guard, officers faced heavy gunfire. The AEI repelled the attack, resulting in two agents sustaining superficial injuries. Three individuals identified as members of ‘Grupo Operativo 666’ were arrested, and an arsenal of weapons was seized as investigations into narcotics trafficking continue. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-14: Oaxaca authorities arrest three suspects after armed confrontation Oaxacan authorities arrested three members of the ‘Grupo Operativo 666’ following an armed confrontation during simultaneous searches in San Miguel Panixtlahuaca. 7 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/oaxaca-authorities-arrest-three-suspects-after-armed-confrontation ### 2026-10-11: Oaxaca Prosecutor denies involvement in shootout with Puebla police The Oaxaca Attorney General's Office denied involvement in a shootout with Puebla police near Acatlán de Osorio after criminal suspects abandoned a vehicle containing official Oaxaca investigation agency gear. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/oaxaca-prosecutor-denies-involvement-in-shootout-with-puebla-police --- Cite as: Security operations and confrontations in Oaxaca.
