A video shared on social media reveals a new form of robbery on the Mexico-Cuernavaca highway, where gangs of criminals use women and children to deceive motorists and rob them.
Modus Operandi
According to a police officer from the Secretariat of Citizen Security of Mexico City (SSC-CDMX), this tactic is primarily used in the section connecting with Tres Marías. Women and children pretend to be in distress, asking for help from passing drivers. When motorists stop to assist, assailants emerge from nearby trees and rob them of their belongings.
Safety Recommendations
The SSC-CDMX advises motorists traveling through this area to remain vigilant and avoid stopping in isolated places. People are also urged to report any suspicious activity to prevent further incidents. These cases highlight the tactics criminals use to exploit people’s goodwill. Authorities emphasize the importance of reporting such situations to the emergency number 911.
