Attack on a Police Station and Homes in Zacatecas

“Sol Prendido” for Borderland Beat 







Once again, Zacatecas is gripped by violence. This is how the various shootouts unfolded in the municipality of García de la Cadena—located in Zacatecas along the border with Jalisco—leaving at least one person dead. 


Among the buildings targeted was the municipal police headquarters. There, at least two patrol cars sustained damage from multiple bullet impacts. According to residents, a convoy of vehicles belonging to an organized crime group stormed into the community during the night, at which point the gunfire erupted. 


Authorities have stepped up surveillance and requested federal assistance; in addition to the police headquarters, a private residence—the one we just saw—also sustained damage from gunfire to its facade. 


These attacks took place at approximately 5:00 a.m., with one occurring slightly earlier. Currently, a joint operational base comprising the Mexican Army, the National Guard, the Secretariat of Public Security, and the State Attorney General's Office is stationed at the scene. 


The Attorney General's Office has also reported that, based on preliminary information, the attacks have resulted in one fatality.

    1. One thing I’ve learned over the years is things don’t get done in Mexico because they don’t want to do them. When they set out to do something or get someone they accomplish their mission. So it’s definitely not a capability thing it’s a why are they so unsuccessful

  3. This was most likely CJNG doing their cowardly hit and run tactics like always. This police station needs to better fortify itself. They have no protection. Nuff Said!!!

  4. Thanks Sol. That’s the kind of news why I started to come here, to see what’s happening around my Aguascachonda. And by the way, I think it is another town, a bit more south.
