Juan Pedro Arámburo García, the commander of the Sinaloa State Preventive Police, was shot and killed yesterday morning in Culiacán, in an ambush while he was driving through the streets of the 10 de Mayo neighborhood.
According to witnesses, Garcia was driving in southern Culiacán in a white Nissan Versa when a vehicle blocked his path. Another vehicle with gunmen pulled up and opened fire before fleeing the scene.
The Sinaloa Cartel civil war has brought homicides to new heights in Culiacán and across the state. Last year, the number of murders nearly doubled, from 541 in 2024 to 908.
