César Iván D. Arrested for Cocaine Trafficking

César Iván D., a 38-year-old wanted for cocaine trafficking in Ohio, was arrested on November 7 in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, following a collaborative effort by the Chihuahua Attorney General's Office and U.S. Marshals. His arrest occurred in the Las Arcadas neighborhood, and he was subsequently handed over to U.S. authorities at the Stanton Bridge. In a separate incident, an 18-month investigation into a drug trafficking organization in southern New Mexico led to 16 arrests and significant drug seizures, with federal officials emphasizing their commitment to combating drug-related crime in the region. Additionally, a member of the Cartel Del Noreste was apprehended by U.S. Border Patrol in Laredo, Texas, highlighting ongoing efforts to disrupt violent criminal organizations operating along the border. Authorities continue to warn that drug traffickers will not be tolerated in southern New Mexico and are working closely with various agencies to address these issues.
