The Arrest of Notorious Drug Dealer ‘El Lun\u00e1tiko’ in Mexico City<\/h2>\n

In a significant move against drug trafficking in Mexico City, elements of the Ministry of Citizen Security<\/b> (SSC) successfully apprehended Luis Emmanuel Barroso Ortiz<\/b>, popularly known as “Lun\u00e1tiko<\/i>” or “Lunay<\/i>.” Ortiz is a notorious member of the Tepito Union<\/b>, a group that has been in constant conflict with rival factions for dominance in the drug trade, particularly in the Morelos and Centro colonies.<\/p>\n

The arrest was part of ongoing preventive patrols in the Cuauht\u00e9moc Mayor’s Office<\/b>. During these operations, police apprehended two individuals who were found with apparent marijuana, cocaine, and glass.<\/p>\n

According to the statement released by the SSC, this operation was driven by various investigative measures following a recent shooting incident that took place on November 24, 2024, on Joaqu\u00edn Herrera Street, resulting in the loss of three lives.<\/p>\n

The authorities highlighted that those involved in this attack were linked to a cell opposing the Tepito Union, thus prompting a comprehensive intelligence operation in the region, which included fixed and mobile surveillance.<\/p>\n

During a patrol on Joaqu\u00edn Herrera, police noticed two males on a blue motorcycle handling illegal drug packages. Upon realizing the police presence, they attempted to escape, leading to a pursuit that ended on Republic of Bolivia Street, where they were brought to the ground and arrested.<\/p>\n

During the arrest, authorities secured 24 capsules of cocaine, nine doses of apparent marijuana, a glass bag, a cell phone, cash, and a motorcycle equipped with a presence sensor.<\/p>\n

Emmanuel Barroso Ortiz<\/b> and his accomplice, Aldo Ramses Carre\u00f1o \u00c1guilas<\/b>, aged 23 and 29 respectively, were taken into custody and presented to a Public Ministry agent for further legal proceedings.<\/p>\n

The SSC revealed that “[i]l Lun\u00e1tiko” has been engaged in a fierce rivalry with the Tepito Union, which is known for its illicit activities involving drug trafficking, weapons, extortion, and debt collection.<\/p>\n
