Security operations in Puebla and Tlaxcala

Overview

Security forces have conducted multiple operations in the Puebla and Tlaxcala regions involving vehicle theft, narcotics, and highway violence.

On the Puebla-Orizaba highway, a high-speed pursuit and exchange of gunfire occurred following an alleged attempted robbery of a heavy cargo truck operator. During the intervention by the National Guard and the Secretariat of Public Security, authorities arrested one man and seized a vehicle that reportedly simulated a police patrol car. No injuries were officially reported.

In coordinated operations, authorities recovered several stolen vehicles. In San Pedro Cholula, the Puebla State Attorney General’s Office, supported by the Mexican Navy and National Guard, seized a 2024 Jeep JT Mojave along with four other vehicles: a Toyota Tacoma, a Cupra Terramar, a Volkswagen Taos, and a Nissan NP300 at a searched property. Additionally, municipal police in Coronango recovered two motorcycles that had been stolen with violence near a market in Tlaxcala.

In San Jerónimo Tianguismanalco, a coordinated raid involving the Mexican Army (SEDENA) and the National Guard resulted in the arrest of four individuals. During this operation, authorities seized 47 bags of a substance resembling crystal meth and a gram scale.
