Laguna Hanson, La Rumerosa Operation Condor apprehensions
Over 100 agents involved, plus helicopters.
A group of more than a hundred agents, including the State Civil Security Force (FESC), the National Defense Secretary (DEFENSA), the National Guard
(GN), the State Prosecutor General's Office (FGE), as well as the Metropolitan Police, have deployed and reinforced various drone and helicopter
operations of the Secretariat of Citizen Security (SSCBC) in the vicinity of the mountainous areas of the village of La Rumorosa, in Tecate and Laguna
Hanson, in the municipality of Ensenada, maintaining an important presence, as well as direct contact with the residents of both areas.
From last month of April to 10th of May this year the security group called "Operative Condor 2" has achieved the security of two long firearms, 43
useful cartridges of various calibers, as well as a gun loader; in addition to the recovery of two vehicles with reports of theft and two others that
are allegedly involved in investigation files for their use in criminal activities, as well as a ballistic vest, this in La Rumorosa, town of Tecate.
Meanwhile in Laguna Hanson, in Ensenada, during the same storm, two people were arrested for federal crimes, as they were secured two long firearms
and 03 useful cartridges; in addition, they were secured a four-wheeled motorcycle.
It should be noted that the implementation of two Technical Investigation Orders was also carried out at two sites of La Rumorosa, the first located
on De Borrego Street securing a site and 85 shells percured; the second property located in the vicinity of De La Amistad Avenue, in a building known
as "Retirement House of Father Oscar Benavente" where two vehicles were located; the facade of the site had several bullet strikes at the gate.
It is noted that in the vicinity of this last place, in the agreste zone, a Toyota Tacoma truck model 2015 with border plates was located, which had a
report of recent theft in the city of Tijuana.

Jeesus-- is that Google Translate?  It usually does better than that.
For those of us trying to make sense of the sometimes-bizzare translations coming out of these machine translations, it would be helpful to include a
link to the original article along with the "translation"...

Please post the original. Your translation is not very good.
Woke!
Hands off!

Thank you! 
That actually does say "...dos armas de fuego largas y 03 cartuchos útiles..."
Wonder if that leading zero was a typo, or some weird attempt at looking official?

The following article reads as rather slim on facts, more like an op-ed.
I cleaned up the Google translation a little.

La Rumorosa, under the shadow of the crime and inaction of the state guard.
The State Guard has lost control of La Rumorosa, while organized crime imposes its law in the absence of strategy and authority.
by
Newsweek Baja California
May 9, 2025
La Rumorosa, known for its imposing landscapes and its dangerous road, has become a focus of insecurity in Baja California. While residents and
visitors deal with the increase in violent crimes, the State Security Guard remains absent, without clear reports of effective actions to contain the
progress of organized crime in the area.
In recent months, it has been the scene of high-impact crimes. The State Attorney General, headed by Ma. Elena Andrade Ramírez, has implemented
operations in an attempt to stop the wave of crimes, however, the efforts have been insufficient. According to the prosecutor, the area is disputed by
criminal gangs dedicated to huachicoleo (gasoline/fuel theft) and trafficking of people, activities that have increased violence.
YouTuber murder reveals the rawness of state abandonment:
The recent murder of a YouTuber, known for promoting visits to the region, has generated shock and a call for attention to the risks facing those who
travel through the rumor. Social networks were filled with messages of indignation and fear, while local merchants express their concern for the
impact on their businesses. "People no longer want to come. We are afraid that something happens to us," says Jorge Méndez, owner of a small
restaurant in the area.
Violence has climbed at alarming levels. Local merchants have expressed their fear in the absence of police protection, and carriers who travel
through the 2D federal highway warn about robberies, kidnappings and extortion. However, the State Guard seems to focus more on its controversial
operations than to provide effective security.
Questionable operational, without strategy or results:
Constant complaints about abuse and excesses committed by elements of the State Guard circulate in social networks. The general perception is that the
operations are more focused on intimidating the population than to persecute true criminals.
"We have a state guard that seems to be operating blindly, without a clear plan of action and without concrete results," said Jorge Ramos Hernández,
local deputy, questioning the effectiveness of the corporation in the rumor. Ramos's statements reflect the feeling of many residents who see how the
area has become a territory without law, where criminal groups operate with total impunity.
Absent authority, criminals present:
Instead of strengthening security, state guard operations have generated more doubts than certainties. Cases of abuse of authority, arbitrary arrests
and excessive use of force are some of the accusations that have circulated in social networks and that have not been clarified by the authorities.
In contrast, criminal gangs have diversified their operations in La Rumorosa, from huachicoleo to people trafficking. The absence of a strategic plan
by the State Guard has allowed these groups to continue operating without greater obstacle, while the inhabitants live with the constant fear of being
victims of some crime.
Daily fear and business closing early:
For local merchants, the situation is unsustainable. Businesses that used to depend on tourism now close early for fear of being assaulted, and
residents avoid leaving at night, aware that the State Guard does not guarantee their safety.
"It is incredible that while in other parts of the state, large -scale operations are presumed, here in the rumor we barely see patrols from time to
time, without a clear strategy or visible results," says Roberto Méndez, owner of a restaurant in the area.
The official silence and the human cost of abandonment:
The State Government has maintained a low profile against criticism. Instead of transparent the actions of the State Guard, the authorities have
chosen to minimize the abuse of power and lack of effectiveness. Meanwhile, insecurity continues to charge victims and La Rumorosa is consolidated as
a territory dominated by uncertainty and state abandonment.
For the inhabitants of this iconic area of Baja California, the situation is clear:
Or The State Guard assumes once and for all its responsibility and fights the crime effectively, or criminals will continue to impose their own rules,
in the absence of an authority capable of restoring the order.
