Prosecutors and federal and state officers searched a property in San Luis Coyotzingo, an auxiliary board of Huejotzingo in Puebla, on a warrant.[1][2][3][4] The state prosecutor’s office (Fiscalía General del Estado, FGE) carried out the operation with personnel from the Secretariat of National Defence (Sedena), the National Guard and the Puebla state police.[1][4] Officers described the property as a possible point of sale and distribution of drugs.[1][2][4]

They found 19 doses of what appeared to be marijuana in the property, along with 63 small bags of crystal and a gram scale.[1][2][3][4] The authorities said the scale was presumably used to weigh substances.[1] Crystal is a Mexican street name for methamphetamine, so the bags of crystal are not counted as cannabis here.[1]

The property was sealed and handed over to the authorities to continue investigating whether it was used to distribute drugs.[1][2][4] The search followed intelligence work, field investigation, surveillance and checks of anonymous complaints about possible narcomenudeo, small-scale street-level dealing.[1][4] The FGE said it would keep working with police at all three levels of government to find and act on properties used to store, sell and distribute drugs.[1][4] No arrests were reported in the account of the search.[1][4]
