Over One Ton of Marijuana Seized in Álvaro Obregón Alcaldía

| CDMX

Security forces detained four individuals in the Álvaro Obregón alcaldía after discovering they were transporting more than one ton of marijuana. The operation formed part of ongoing efforts by the Secretaría de Seguridad Ciudadana (SSC) and federal authorities to intercept large narcotics shipments passing through CDMX. The seizure highlights ongoing organized crime transit activity in the capital's western boroughs, despite the government's reported declines in homicide rates. CDMX's position as Mexico's largest metropolitan area makes it a significant transit and distribution hub for drug trafficking organizations.
