Authorities continue patrolling the area to identify any signs of possible violence

Early Thursday morning, reports were received of gunfire in the vicinity of the municipality of Guachochi, causing concern among residents of nearby communities. The reports indicated that the alleged gunfire occurred around midnight and lasted for several minutes.

To date, no formal complaints have been filed by authorities, nor is there an official report confirming a crime related to these reports. However, the citizen reports triggered verification protocols by security forces operating in the region.

Given this situation, the Interinstitutional Operations Bases (BOI) are maintaining an active deployment in the area surrounding the municipality, with the objective of detecting any possible evidence that might clarify whether a security incident occurred. The patrols cover rural roads, trails, and access routes that could be linked to the reported activity.

Authorities reported that these types of operations are part of the ongoing efforts to strengthen security in the mountainous region, especially when citizen reports are received that, while unconfirmed, require immediate follow-up to rule out situations that could endanger the population.

According to preliminary information, the members of the Special Operations Brigade (BOI) are continuing to interview residents in the surrounding area to gather testimonies that will help determine if there were any explosions and, if so, where they might have originated.

The deployment also includes surveillance at strategic points where incidents have previously been reported, in order to ensure that there is no suspicious activity or unusual movement throughout the day.

Authorities urged the public to directly report any situation they consider relevant, as early confirmation of information allows for more effective action and ensures community safety.

Although no evidence of a violent event has been found so far, the corporations that make up the BOI are maintaining the search and surveillance operation in the area, and urged residents to stay informed only through official sources.
