Chiefs vs the de Los Ángeles Chargers at the Azteca Stadium.

Calzada de Tlalpan. The delinquents took their cell phones and wallets, and
some cases even their tennis shoes.

and Los Angeles Chargers at
the Azteca Stadium.
In an operation that
supposedly grouped more than three thousand police officers implemented by the
Secretary of Citizen Security of the capital did nothing to inhibit several
gangs of assailants, especially young people and women who blended amongst the
fans taking advantage of the moment.
Joel Williams an
American expat living in CDMX who attended the game, was one of the victims of
theft of his cell phone, and although he identified the perpetrator and
reported him to several police officers, they alluded that it was very
difficult to stop the thief and let him escape.
John Michael Smith, a
tourist from Kansas City, United States, was stripped of his wallet, cell phone
and tennis shoes in the same place. Complaints to police intensified when the
game ended, without any operation to arrest those responsible for the assaults.

The Secretariat of
Citizen Security of Mexico City (SSC-CDMX) proudly said that no complaint was
filed for the “alleged” thefts suffered by fans at the start or end of the NFL
game between the Kansas Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers at the Azteca Stadium.
“The SSC did not receive any complaint for theft or any major incident, and the District Attorney’s Office in the mayor’s office also did not make any inquiry or record for dispossession of belongings before, during, or after the game of the NFL” said the capital dependence through a statement.
Except that most of the
people who were assaulted left Mexico city the next day in order to return to
their homes. Some of the people interviewed in the place, mentioned that
Claudia Sheinbaum´s security operation was a joke.
When asked about filing
a “denuncia”, most of the people affected said: “For what? Nothing will happen…
most likely the cops are colluded with the robbers”
Well that sucks
ReplyDeleteI was at the game and even was drinking for a couple hours in neighborhood right outside the stadium. Also stayed at my buddy's house in Huixquilucan aka whiskytown in Edomex and in the city en Pedregal de San Nicolas. No problems at all. Everybody was super nice, the food was bomb and the girls were beautiful.

And Mexico lived happily ever after.
Delete5:03 LOL same ol same ol . I hear it all the time when people say "no , Mexico isnt that dangerous I never have any problem" . There have always been people who traveled in Mexico and there have always been a high danger level there than in the USA . There are many factor that contribute to it . Wont name them many of them because they are so politically incorrect to say . One big one is and has always been corruption within the police . Very often , if not most of the time , they are in on it .
DeleteIt goes without saying that anytime you attend an event in Mexico City there are precautions one can take to mitigate the lack of security. DO NOT wear and/or bring the following articles while attending said events. Pants, shirt, hat, belt,
ReplyDeleteshoes, sunglasses, watch, jewelry, wallet, cell phone, loose change, and lastly bubble gum. If you MUST wear shoes remove the shoe laces. It will make it easier for the thieves to get your shoes off when getting robbed. It's fairly safe to wear socks and undewear. Oh yeah - it's not a bad idea to have a poem written by AMLO tucked in your underwear as well. You can read it to the thieves in hopes that they may turn from a life of crime and become your best friend. Be safe.
I Hate that you actually made me laugh
DeleteJust like in chicago. But Mexico is a hardcore place to visit. Chicago playa will just shot you. Mexica. Cartel will remove your head or put you in a barrell of acid. You pick.
DeleteLmfao 😂💀
DeleteAlways got the guy who compares Chicago crime with Mexico crime. Probably happens in London and Madrid too dumbass
DeleteChicago made chapo public enemy number one because of the crimes being committed in the city because of him. So Chicago crime is related to the corruption of Mexicans.
Wow... what a joke. Congrats Mexico!!! Criminals operate with impunity while the citizens are unarmed and abused! Keep voting for the same thing!! Seems to be working great!!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. I always wanted to study in Mexico, and possibly move there later in life. But I’m scared now 🙁 it’s hard to know how bad it really is.
DeleteChivis I had a feeling, when I saw the upcoming gave last week, that after reading countless articles on BB, something is bound to happen, with the people, that went to the game. There is no news on the US side, of robberies at stadium, BB keeps us better informed, than other news outlet.
ReplyDeleteLuna Apagtha
SSC HAVE not SEEN A COMPLAINT THAT IS SO FUNNY. THE VICTIMS KNOW SSC COULD CARELESS. BUT WE R Happy Happy Happy, says Amlo. Lol
ReplyDeletePeople's shoes were stolen as well? Why Mexico? Why?
ReplyDeleteJoel Williams an American expat living in CDMX who attended the game, was one of the victims of theft of his cell phone, and although he identified the perpetrator and reported him to several police officers, they alluded that it was very difficult to stop the thief and let him escape."
ReplyDeleteWhat that means is, the police were in on it.
They want to tourist to continue coming, police did not tell them how to file a complaint, as to show MEXICO is safe.
ReplyDeleteThere goes the NFL franchise, Mexico City Malosos.
ReplyDeleteThat's it I heard it all. Im ashamed of my Mexican people for being too stupid, with a stupider President that catches kingpins then release. Who side is he on.
ReplyDeleteDEATH Penalty needed & right to bear any kind of firearms, conceal carry.
Let them all out of prison but hug them first
DeleteLet's see AMLOS reaction when the NFL decides to pull all games in their country.
DeleteWhat happens when people who depend on these events for money? Probably join in on the criminal activities for financial purposes.
Yup. A few years ago I met a business man in Mexico City, who was robbed of everything and left in “calzones” underwear.
ReplyDeleteQueso
Dam Mexico should just allow its citizens to carry !
ReplyDeleteYou guys must not be aware that even in the usa at big sports events people get robbed, alot of stadiums are by urban areas, i know at mlb cardinals games people have to park by the hood and cars get broken into, same with raiders/athletic games. Theres more too.
ReplyDeleteRobbery happens more in Mexico
DeleteNot the same
DeleteYou idiots are delusional, more robberies happen in us cities, theres way more bigger cities than mexico. Mexicos cops are corrupt And solve less crimes thats the only difference

The people of Mexico should carry knives and everyone should stab anyone carrying a gun up the ass until their arm gets tired. Not allowed guns? A thousand people running after you with knives is a lot more scary.
