Three held after shop search in colonia Pacífico; 50 g of marijuana seized
State investigators searched the Loya's Sun Market shop in Chihuahua's colonia Pacífico after an anonymous complaint and detained three men on suspicion of narcomenudeo, small-scale drug dealing. Officers seized 50 grams of marijuana, more than 100 syringes, 19 crystal pipes, 43 wrapping packages, a gram scale and a DVR, and the shop was closed.
State investigators searched a mini-supermarket shop in the colonia Pacífico
neighbourhood of Chihuahua city on the night of 11 November 2026, and three men
were detained along with drugs and objects allegedly linked to the consumption
and distribution of narcotics.[1]The operation was carried out at the Loya’s
Sun Market at the crossing of avenida 20 de Noviembre and calle 16, after
neighbours of the area anonymously reported the suspected sale of drugs there.[1]On the basis of those accusations, the prosecutor’s office asked a judge
for and obtained a search warrant.[1]
Officers found 50 grams of marijuana, more than 100 syringes, 19 pipes for
smoking crystal and 43 packages that were allegedly used to wrap narcotics.[1]The three men were detained for their probable involvement in activities of
narcomenudeo, small-scale drug dealing.[1]The district prosecutor explained
that the syringes could have been used for the consumption of heroin, although
he specified that this was a presumption derived from the evidence found.[1]He also considered that the seized objects point to the shop working as a point
of sale of drugs.[1]
La Parada Digital identified the detained men as Emilio R. L., Marco Antonio P.
E. and Rafael A. M., aged 44, 22 and 43, and reported that a gram scale and a
DVR were also seized.[2]El Bordo reported that during the search three men
were found in possession of approximately 50 grams of marijuana, more than 100
syringes allegedly used for the consumption of heroin, 19 crystal pipes and 43
paper packages for wrapping.[3]The prosecutor added that the investigation
remains open and that the proceedings will allow gathering more elements to
determine the corresponding responsibilities when the case is judicialised.[3]Terrazas Parada said the search followed the neighbours’ complaint: they
requested the search, it was granted, and that is what was found on site, with
the investigations being reviewed.[3]
