Two Durango municipal police officers detained; they did not have permission to carry weapons

Two municipal police officers from the municipality of Nuevo Ideal in Durango were detained by elements of the Mexican Army for lacking proper authorization to carry weapons. The Secretary of Security for Durango, Óscar Galván Villarreal, confirmed the incident, stating that the Army conducted a review of an operation being carried out by the municipal officers and verified their weapon permits. Officers Felipe 'E' and José 'H' were found to be without the necessary authorization and were placed under the authority of the Federal Prosecutor’s Office (FGR) to address this administrative violation. The secretary urged all municipal security directors to regularize their personnel and ensure they have valid weapon permits, as the military will continue conducting inspections and take action against similar cases.
