The arrest was made following a 9-1-1 emergency call requesting assistance to apprehend two individuals who had broken into a warehouse and stolen tools. When the police arrived, a witness identified two men who were trying to escape from the scene. The police recovered a crowbar, pressure pliers, two maces, and an axe.
The suspects, 44-year-old Samuel "N" from Chiapas, and 19-year-old Jesus "N" from Quintana Roo, were taken into custody and handed over to the State Attorney General's Office on charges of theft.
