One year after another plane crash in the state
On January 23, 2024, a small plane crashed in Tepic and after the accident the vehicle caught fire. At the time, the head of the State Secretariat for Security and Citizen Protection, Jorge Benito Rodríguez Martínez, spoke of four deaths.
“At first glance, there are four dead, three men and one woman. The plane was coming here to Tepic, coming from Atizapán de Zaragoza, State of Mexico,” he told the media. Part of the graphic material shared in January of last year is used by various media to illustrate recent actions.
