In Michoacán, a coordinated operation by federal and state authorities resulted in the confiscation of significant illegal materials during a judicial search in Uruapan. The operation was authorized by a control judge and was part of ongoing intelligence work and investigation efforts into criminal activity in the region. The search took place in a property located in the Francisco J. Múgica neighborhood, highlighting the government’s ongoing efforts to combat organized crime and narcotics trafficking in Mexico.

During the dive, authorities recovered a range of items considered of criminal interest. Notable finds included nine structures designed for drones, various types of firearms and thousands of ammunition rounds, including 7.62x51 caliber cartridges. The seizure also encompassed tactical equipment, including vests and magazines for both long and short firearms, revealing the militarized nature of organized crime involved in these operations. Additionally, substances believed to be narcotics and containers labeled with the initials of a criminal group were also secured.

The implications of such large-scale drug and weapon seizures are significant in the context of Mexico's ongoing battle with drug cartels and organized crime. By dismantling the infrastructure supporting these groups, authorities aim to disrupt their operations. Such initiatives are essential in addressing the violence and security challenges that regions like Michoacán face. Continuous judicial and law enforcement responsiveness is being emphasized as a means to restore safety and order in areas heavily impacted by crime.
