Overview
- An anonymous tip prompted the Fiscalía General de la República to obtain a judicial search warrant that led federal forces to inspect two containers at the Ensenada Maritime Customs facility.
- During the operation carried out around May 31, agents found four high-end vehicles with theft reports: two pickup trucks in one container and two cars in the other.
- Shipping documents inspected by authorities list the Asian continent as the containers' final destination, a detail now central to the probe.
- The Navy, Policía Federal Ministerial and Aduanas secured the scene and turned the vehicles and containers over to the Fiscalía Especializada de Control Regional for evidence gathering and to determine legal responsibility.
- Officials have not released vehicle makes, origins, or reported any arrests so the case remains active and could prompt greater scrutiny of maritime export checks and efforts to return vehicles to owners.
