In the Ancón district, a drug operation took place resulting in the seizure of around 50 packages of suspected drugs, the detention of a 24-year-old individual, and the recovery of a vehicle related to drug trafficking activities.
The suspected drugs were discovered in a hidden compartment of the vehicle intercepted by authorities after a police chase that extended from the Bridge of the Americas to a public area near Omar Torrijos Herrera Avenue.
One of the involved individuals, aged 24, was detained in connection with this shipment of illicit substances, while investigations continue to clarify the extent of this drug trafficking network. The effective operation highlights law enforcement's efforts to combat drug trafficking in the region.
This drug intervention is a clear example of the authorities' commitment to the fight against drug trafficking and organized crime, as well as the importance of international cooperation to effectively and decisively address this scourge.
