El Charco is a renowned seafood restaurant in Hermosillo that has hosted several celebrities, including the regional band Calibre 50 and boxer Julio César Chávez. Behind this recognized establishment was Carlos Tirado, who was tragically murdered on February 16 by an individual who pretended to be a delivery person for the Didi platform.
