Drug blockades reported on borders between Jalisco and Aguascalientes; armed men set vehicles on fire

As a result of an operation implemented by elements of the National Defense in the municipality of Ojuelos, in Los Altos de Jalisco, armed individuals set fire to vehicles at three highway points in the region to block the passage.

Unofficially, it has been reported that the military personnel were looking for an alleged member of a criminal group to arrest him, which caused the criminals, aboard two trucks, to react by trying to hinder the work of the authorities.

For their part, Jalisco authorities reported that the blockades were recorded at kilometer 53 of the Ojuelos de Jalisco-Aguascalientes highway, on the Lagos de Moreno-León highway and on the Encarnación de Díaz-Aguascalientes highway, near the town of El Salvador.

The Jalisco Public Security Secretariat came to provide support to the soldiers and so far no injuries have been reported.
