Municipal police, Nayarit state police and the Mexican Army seized an abandoned
Honda XR motorcycle and 54 wrappers of suspected drugs in San Juan de Abajo, in
Bahía de Banderas municipality.[1]
Of the total, 31 wrappers and packets of different sizes held suspected
marijuana, which the authorities said may have been intended for sale and
distribution.[1]The other 23 wrappers held a substance with characteristics
similar to crystal, a methamphetamine known in Mexico as cristal, and are not
counted as cannabis here.[1]The drugs were inside a black backpack and a blue
handbag, beside the red-and-black motorcycle.[1]
Preliminary, unofficial accounts said the seizure followed a chase after the man
riding the motorcycle, who reportedly fled and left the vehicle and the drugs
behind.[1]No one was reported arrested, and the motorcycle and drugs went to
the competent authority for an investigation file and inquiries to identify the
suspected owner.[1]
Authorities at the three levels of government described the operation as part of
permanent patrols in Bahía de Banderas against small-scale drug dealing, known
in Mexico as narcomenudeo.[1]

The article gives no date for the operation; 5 November 2026 is its publication date and is used as the incident date.
The marijuana is reported only as 31 wrappers and packets of different sizes, with no weight or street value, so no kilogram figure or value is recorded.
The account of the chase and the fleeing rider is described as preliminary and unofficial, pending the authorities' official version.
No suspect was named, arrested or charged; the case was at the investigation stage.
Only one account of this event was found; the same outlet's Facebook page carried a matching post, but no second independent report was opened.
The three page photos carry no credit and their captions repeat the same seizure description; they are linked, not treated as a cover.
