Rains cause damage in Los Reyes La Paz; authorities conduct cleanup

Heavy rainfall over Los Reyes La Paz has caused significant damage to homes and infrastructure, prompting an emergency response from municipal authorities. The storm, which lasted for several hours, particularly affected the neighborhoods of Valle de los Reyes, La Floresta, El Salado, and Ampliación San Sebastián.

Residents in Ampliación San Sebastián reported unprecedented intensity of the rainfall. The deluge also spilled onto the Mexico-Texcoco federal highway, where accumulated water from the San Isidro hills stranded several vehicles and disrupted traffic.

Municipal personnel from Transit, the Navy, Civil Protection, and the water and sanitation organism (OPDAPAS) are actively involved in cleanup efforts. These operations, supported by the National Water Commission (Conagua) and the State Water Commission of Mexico (CAEM), focus on clearing streets and cisterns. Municipal President Martha Guerrero urged residents for patience and cooperation, particularly in Ampliación San Sebastián, where cleanup of damaged belongings is underway. The municipal government plans to conduct a census to precisely document the number of affected properties.
