Following several complaints, police arrested three men who were demanding money from drivers in the Insurgentes Norte and Zacatenco areas.

“Los Negros” demanded a fee from public transportation drivers in the Gustavo A. Madero borough in exchange for not attacking them. Fed up, the drivers affected by the extortion reported the criminals, and three of them were arrested.

“El Karín” is actually named Mauricio Constantino, is 34 years old, and along with Ramsés Ismael, “El Ramas,” and Edwin Armando, both 18 years old, threatened drivers to force them to hand over part of their earnings.

These are the men who, notebook in hand, extorted public transportation drivers in the northern part of the city.

With these notes in their notebooks, the criminals recorded the drivers on the routes running from Indios Verdes to Martín Carrera who handed over the demanded fee.

With the complaint filed with the city police, the search for the assailants began. It didn't happen overnight, but after several visits to the Residencial Zacatenco neighborhood, where the drivers' base is located, the officers managed to locate the three men.

It was at the bus stop on Insurgentes Norte Avenue where the criminals from the "Los Negros" gang arrived and threatened the workers.

Threatened with harm if they refused to hand over the money, the drivers had no choice but to give up their earnings.

Upon seeing them, the police approached and arrested them. They were carrying the loot their victims had handed over, along with six cell phones and the notebook where they organized the extortion schemes.

The three men arrested were identified by their victims as the individuals who had been extorting them.

The men were taken to the prosecutor's office where the investigation continues.
