Overview
- A viral video shows a Christmas-themed convoy of at least a dozen luxury pickups with armed men and a Santa figure handing out gifts in Tlacotepec, Guerrero.
- The parade reportedly occurred Sunday night in the municipal seat, which reporting describes as a stronghold of the group known as “Los Tlacos.”
- President Claudia Sheinbaum said the case was addressed, noting deployments by the Army and Navy in the state and an investigation to determine crimes and detain those responsible.
- Sheinbaum emphasized avoiding confrontations that could harm civilians and said responses can be immediate operations or later arrests following inquiries.
- Authorities had not announced arrests connected to the convoy, and coverage characterizes Los Tlacos as a criminal organization with broad regional influence and multiple illicit activities.
