The detention of Salvador "N" took place in the municipality of Villa del Carbón, where, according to the statement from the FGJEM, he attempted to evade justice by firing at the Investigation Police. The officers responded and arrested him, resulting in Salvador sustaining three bullet wounds, and he was transported to a hospital in the region.
The Attorney General's Office mentioned that Salvador "N" is also being investigated for other homicides and for the theft of hydrocarbons in the State of Mexico and in Hidalgo, where he has an arrest warrant.

In relation to the murder of Calletano Jesús Guerrero on January 17, it was determined that the journalist, deputy director of the media outlet Global México, was attacked by armed individuals in front of the San Antonio de Padua church in Teoloyucan.
