A large-scale mobilization of security forces took place in the Venustiano Carranza neighborhood in Mexicali following a report of a party at a residence where neighbors complained about loud music during the early morning hours.
According to the context of the events, the incident originated at a home where a party was being held. Security personnel arrived at the scene at approximately 8:00 a.m. after receiving complaints from nearby residents
Upon the officers’ arrival, attendees allegedly reacted aggressively, leading to a confrontation that escalated into gunfire directed at the officers. During the attack, a female police officer was injured, prompting an immediate security operation in the area.
Hours of tension unfolded in the Carranza neighborhood after what began as a noise complaint at 8:00 a.m. escalated into a series of events involving arrests, a pursuit, and a shooting. At the time of this report, the situation remained highly dangerous.
During the incident, armed individuals fired shots at the Venustiano Carranza police substation while a pursuit related to the same case was underway, further increasing the security presence in the area.
Public Security Director Luis Felipe Chan Baltazar provided an update from the scene, confirming that a coordinated operation had been deployed to locate those responsible and reinforce security. He stated that the investigation is ongoing and the situation remains active.
Additionally, a preventive evacuation of personnel was carried out at the police station located on Anáhuac Boulevard, known as “El Caracol,” as an operational measure due to the risks stemming from the incident.
