Four Foreign Nationals Arrested in Connection with Motorist Robberies; Money, Weapons, and Cell Phones Seized

Mexico City authorities have apprehended four foreign nationals implicated in a string of robberies targeting drivers. The arrests, made by the capital's police force, follow an investigation into a robbery on Circuito Interior where a victim was deprived of cash and a wallet. Surveillance footage from the C2 Center enabled police to track the suspects' vehicles, a black and a white car, leading to their capture.

In one operation, police intercepted the white car in the Maza neighborhood, arresting two men and one woman. They were found with 80,000 pesos, a knife, a wallet, and four cell phones. A subsequent interception of the black car in the Iztapalapa mayor's office led to the arrest of another individual carrying a firearm and various items. The four individuals, identified as Juan "N," José Ramón "N," Raúl "N," and Sharon Melisa "N," have been handed over to the Public Ministry for legal proceedings.

Investigations suggest the white car was used to follow a motorist who was robbed of a high-end watch in the Cuajimalpa mayor's office on the night of April 21. The detainees are also believed to be involved in at least four other robberies that have occurred this year in the Miguel Hidalgo, Álvaro Obregón, and Cuauhtémoc mayor's offices. This operation highlights the ongoing efforts by Mexico City police to combat organized crime and ensure the safety of its citizens and visitors.
