Last weekend, criminals dropped over 40 explosives from commercial drones above five communities in the municipality of Petatlán, Guerrero. The damage to homes and farmland forced many civilians in the community to flee the region.
At least 40 homes were damaged and 250 hectares of farmland were burned, according to Proceso. People were forced to flee from the communities of El Anono, El Limón, Casas Viejas, El Mameyal and la Finca after the attacks started on Saturday and continued Sunday, the 23rd and 24th of March.
Locals have denounced the lack of government presence in the region.
On March 25, locals from this region located and detained a young man who was lost in the hilly countryside. They found the 22-year-old, allegedly a member of La Familia Michoacána in possession of an AK-47, explosives and drones, reported local news. He admitted to participating in massacres on the payroll of La Familia Michoacána, and being paid 14,000 pesos (840 USD) a month.
According to locals, these sort of attacks have been occurring for the past year, around when local crime groups Los Arreola and Los Maldonado began fighting La Familia Michoacána for control of this region.

DeleteNo mention of murders in the text above. Feel free to blame amlo but the true culprits are in the gob of guerrero.
DeleteIs amlo going to sue the drone makers?

ReplyDeleteDoes this mean Pablo Edwin Huerta Nuño has Tláhuac & the Unión Tepito’s going all in for Guanajuato ?
ReplyDeleteThese are not criminals, these are terrorist plain and simple, hugs are not cutting it..
ReplyDeleteAnd Fox News say all the people coming to the US are bad people. Where else can the go? Nowhere in Mexico.
ReplyDeleteThe weak and fractured cartels don’t have big drug supplies so the exploit the citizens of everything. Every time one cartel defeats and fracture a cartel, this happens and it is much worse. Every time a cartel leader is busted, another fracture.
Mexico cannot afford police forces powerful enough to protect, plus cartel buy or bully them to join.
So, what is the answer? More hard core criminals are being displaced daily. Much like the super rich and corporations having crushed main steet business but without violence.
