Mazatlan /
The Durango-Mazatlán highway, at kilometer 168, remains blocked after several violent incidents that were recorded in the last few hours.
Alleged armed groups set trailers on fire and left punctured tire devices, which has caused the closure of the section.
According to reports from Federal Roads and Bridges (CAPUFE), the incidents have been attended to by the authorities and work is ongoing to completely reopen the road.
The blockade has been prolonged after two lifeless bodies were located in the area, which has intensified the presence of authorities in the area to investigate the events and restore security in the region.
Hours before, in the municipality of Concordia, a confrontation between rival groups occurred that left seven people dead on the spot and two seriously injured. One of the injured died after receiving medical attention, bringing the number of victims to eight.
