Approximately 279 firearms, 861 magazines, 14,979 useful cartridges, as well as 79.698 kilograms of crystal meth were located and seized in a home in the municipality of Boca del Río, Veracruz, informed the Ministry of the Navy (Semar). 

An anonymous call alerted of the presence of the arsenal in an apartment building, which resulted in a search warrant executed by the FGR, so the Naval Police personnel went to the home.

Elements of the Navy-Mexico Navy Secretariat, with the support of state agents, carried out a special operation in the luxurious Costa de Oro subdivision.

The agents carried out an inspection inside an apartment, where long arms, magazines and drugs were found.

Upon finding the weapons and the substances described above, the relevant procedures were implemented and the weapons and the suspected drugs were handed over to the Attorney General’s Office for the opening of the corresponding investigation file.
