Violence and missing persons in Chihuahua

Overview

In Chihuahua, Mexico, authorities have addressed several cases involving violence and missing persons. In late August, a memorial was held for Nicole Alexia Mingura Montes, a 911 emergency operator who was killed in a femicide. Authorities identified her former partner, Carlos Sigala, as the perpetrator, noting that he subsequently took his own life.

By mid-September, the Chihuahua State Attorney General's Office issued official search alerts for two missing women: 18-year-old Melany Lizeth Rubio Méndez, who disappeared from Chihuahua City on September 11, and 16-year-old Julisa Yesenia Argüello Alvarado, who was last seen in Ciudad Juárez on September 16. Authorities have requested public assistance in locating both individuals.
