On December 25, 2025, the National Police unveiled new patrol vehicles to put pressure on criminal elements. It is reported that these cars have been deployed to reinforce security at various hotspots across the country.
In a separate incident, armed suspects were captured after fleeing on a motorcycle. There are also reports of Christmas being stolen from children at a school in El Roble de Aguadulce. During a family gathering, a man was stabbed to death.
The National Police have put new patrol vehicles into service and are already deploying them to reinforce security at various hotspots in the country. These are 4x4 pickup trucks, ready to patrol where the public asks for a greater police presence.
These units have been strategically distributed in areas where the pressure is on: San Miguelito, Pacora, the West Metro area, and the Penitentiary Service.
These vehicles are not just for show. With these units, officers can respond faster to emergency calls and reinforce preventive operations, precisely as activity increases and so do the risks.
According to the institution, the idea is to make a presence, prevent crime, and regain the public's trust—the trust of people who want to see the police nearby, patrolling the streets and not arriving late.
