Suspected "H1 A1" group member arrested in Iztapalapa with drugs and weapon

Authorities in Iztapalapa, Mexico City, arrested a man identified as a suspected member of the "H1 A1" criminal group, which is known for generating violence. The arrest by the Secretariat of Citizen Security (SSC) followed a report from a motorist about a speeding vehicle driving dangerously.

During a preventive search of the vehicle, officers discovered 83 small bags and two packages of suspected marijuana, 48 doses of a substance resembling cocaine, and 38 grams of suspected crystal methamphetamine. They also found a handgun with a magazine loaded with five rounds and two cell phones. The detained individual, identified as Mario Iván, 29, also known by the alias “El Queso de Puerco,” was handed over to the Public Ministry along with the seized items and vehicle.

According to SSC investigations, the man allegedly collaborates closely with individuals known as “El Galleta” and “El Chaparro,” who reportedly operate under the direction of “El Alemán” and “El Champi.” This organization is under investigation for its suspected involvement in drug and arms trafficking, extortion, homicide, and other high-impact crimes in both Mexico City and municipalities within the State of Mexico.

The legal status of the detainee will be determined by the Public Ministry as investigations continue.
