A human head appeared a few moments ago.
It would be the second human head to appear in the last 24 hours here in Culiacán. We're going with you, Ángel, with the report.
Good morning.
Good morning, José.
Well, we were just reporting on yesterday's summary, where a decapitated head and also the headless body were found in the Campiña subdivision.
Just a few minutes ago, another decapitated head was abandoned here, just a few meters from the main entrance of the zoo, here on the Paseo Niños Héroes, known as the New Malecón.
This decapitated head was also found on a message written on a piece of cardboard here, precisely on the sidewalk, approximately 15 meters from the zoo's emblematic letters.
The human remains were abandoned precisely under the bridge, also known as the White Bridge, located here at the entrance to the zoo, in front of some passing motorists. The exact place where they were, uh, several calls were received by the emergency services about armed individuals who were leaving this human head here on the sidewalk in front of the zoo. Right now, dozens of members of the municipal police and the National Guard are here guarding the place. The site has already been secured.
The area has been coordinated, although traffic has not been cut off in either direction, José. And for the moment, uh, we don't have any characteristics of this person's face, at least his hair, his skin, his skin color, because the police were quickly near the scene. They quickly arrived and placed a blue sheet covering, uh, what is, this person's head. And it is presumed that, similar to the situation in yesterday's case, this person's body will probably be abandoned somewhere else in the next few hours. José, yes, they are, eh? What can we call messages that tell the citizens that the war is not over, that the war has not ended, that the violence here in Sinaloa continues, that the violence in Culiacán continues, two human heads in less than 24 hours, and the way they leave them in one of the most public places in Culiacán, which is the zoo and Constitución Park, right on the Malecón Viejo, where everyone passes by.
In a few moments, that sector is going to be full of cars, Ángel, and also the traffic is going to be tremendous because I'm seeing in the images you're sending us, which is only good, they're blocking one lane. Not the entire lane, not just leaving one lane blocked, but the other free, but in a few moments, this is going to be chaos, Ángel.
Yes, that's right, José. The safest thing, the most likely thing that will happen is that the lane of, at least the one leading from the West, the East, leading from the center. From Culiacán towards the Las Quintas neighborhood, traffic has been completely closed. There is only the entire roadway. There's only one lane, the high-speed lane is open, and the other opposing lanes are not. Both are free. But it's likely that at any moment, the authorities will completely close the traffic lane, waiting for the experts from the State Attorney General's Office to arrive to begin fieldwork and remove the human remains from that location to transfer the SMEFO (Semefo) while being claimed by his family.
Yes, well, 9 months of war, this doesn't end, it doesn't end. Sometimes it intensifies, sometimes it calms down for a few days, and suddenly we have these kinds of discoveries: human heads in Culiacán.
There are already two, and now they're leaving one in front of Constitución Park. Yesterday, it was at booth 4 in the Juárez neighborhood, and the body was found 11 hours later. You told us, Ángel, in the countryside, and at any moment, the body of this human head could appear. No, Angel, did you send it? Yes, Jose, eh, indeed, as you mentioned, the body and the head. They were found 11 hours apart yesterday.
Eh, the head was found in the Benito Juárez neighborhood, and the body was found 11 hours later in the afternoon in the La Campiña subdivision.
At the moment, no official identification has been issued.
Yes, well, yes, yes, it seems that Angel,
you're there gathering information about what's happening right now in the Parque Constitucional, near the Culiacán Zoo parking lot. We were saying, Angel,
that the body with this head could appear at any moment. Right, Angel?
Oh, okay. Yes, I was mentioning to you that yesterday afternoon, when the investigation was being carried out where the body, uh, was found without a head in the La Campiña subdivision, relatives came and, presumably, at first glance, confirmed that it was this person based on the few characteristics that were present. Even so, they decided not to provide their details, and in the next few hours they will probably officially appear before a representative of the Public Ministry to give their statement and be able to claim the bodies of their relatives. We will be awaiting the identification of this person. In the meantime, as you mentioned, this is the second case that has occurred in similar circumstances in Culiacán. This has only been less than 24 hours since the second head was found here, precisely a few meters from the entrance to the Culiacán Zoo. Well, we will be in constant communication. Thank you, Ángel. Good morning. Good morning.
