Mexican federal authorities have arrested six individuals in Jalisco, who are allegedly linked to the criminal cell known as "Los Deltas." This group is reportedly involved in a range of illicit activities, including robbery, extortion, drug dealing, and homicide.

The arrests were made after federal authorities executed a search warrant in Jalisco. During the operation, law enforcement officials seized multiple firearms, ballistic vests, communication equipment, vehicles, and a motorcycle. These seizures are expected to disrupt the operational capabilities of the criminal organization.

The Security Cabinet of Mexico highlighted the collaborative efforts between different levels of government to combat organized crime.
