Overview
- FGE reports the shooting occurred around 5 p.m. in Tres Ríos near the state attorney general’s offices, where rifle fire from a Jetta struck a 2025 GMC Sierra that was left running in drive with dozens of shell casings at the scene.
- Gerardo Moya, 25, known as “El Jerry,” and his companion Gustavo “N,” 26, died inside the truck; security forces secured the area and opened an investigation with no arrests announced.
- Vehicle records show the GMC Sierra was registered in Sinaloa in April 2025 with no prior crime or theft reports, according to the public registry cited by local media.
- Minutes before the ambush, Instagram stories showed the pair in the same vehicle with beers as narcocorridos played, and separate circulating clips depict the influencer with long guns and “MF” patches, though authorities have not confirmed any cartel affiliation.
- The case adds to at least nine killings of social‑media creators since late 2024 that regional outlets link to the split between Los Chapitos and Los Mayos, with officials confirming only the deaths and the ongoing inquiries.
