According to media reports in Mexico, three men were arrested on Thursday night after their car was stopped and a quantity of drugs, cash and guns were recovered during an arrest in the Miguel Hidalgo borough of Mexico City.<\/p>\n
One of the men is identified as being Jackson Alan Patrick (22) who was travelling with what the reports described as a \u201cNorthern Ireland passport\u201d.<\/p>\n
A video showing the three men in handcuffs was posted on the official X social media page belonging to the Pablo V\u00e1zquez Camacho, the Secretary of Citizen Security of Mexico City.<\/p>\n
He tweeted: \u201cAs a result of investigative and intelligence work to combat high-impact crimes, colleagues from @SSC_CDMX arrested three men in @AlcaldiaMHmx in possession of approximately 2 kilograms of suspected drugs, a handgun, live ammunition, and a high-end vehicle without license plates.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe detainees are allegedly linked to drug sales and distribution in the municipalities of #MiguelHidalgo, @TuAlcaldiaGAM, as well as in the municipality of #Huixquilucan, in the State of Mexico.\u201d<\/p>\n
And he concluded his post by saying. \u201cWe continue working to identify and arrest those who commit crimes, bring them to justice, and continue building a safer, more just, and peaceful city.\u201d<\/p>\n
Further media reports claimed the three men were suspected of being involved in making deliveries set up through WhatsApp in different neighbourhoods of the Miguel Hidalgo area of the capital city.<\/p>\n
The reports say the men were also pictured posing on social media networks with short and long firearms and showing videos of packages and bricks of drugs.<\/p>\n
The other two gang suspects were named as 44-year-old Hugo Enrique and 34-year-old Leopoldo Alonso.<\/p>\n

Drugs, cash and firearms seized by Mexican officials<\/p>\n
One media report in El Heraldo de Mexico stated, \u201cThis as a result of investigation and follow-up work to identify and arrest generators of violence in the Miguel Hidalgo mayor’s office, members of the Secretariat of Citizen Security (SSC) of Mexico City arrested the three men, one of them a British citizen, in possession of a firearm, eight useful cartridges and a package with apparent marijuana.<\/p>\n
It went on to say the group were, \u201cPossibly related to the sale and distribution of narcotics in that demarcation, in Gustavo A. Madero, and in the municipality of Huixquilucan, in the State of Mexico.<\/p>\n
\u201cThrough intelligence work, it was learned that a group of individuals, through messages sent via an instant messaging app, were offering to sell alleged drugs for delivery in different neighbourhoods of the Miguel Hidalgo borough. They were also posing with handguns, rifles, and live ammunition.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a result, officers increased patrols and patrols in the area. While driving along Ej\u00e9rcito Nacional Avenue in the Irrigaci\u00f3n neighbourhood, they observed a high-end red vehicle without license plates, the occupants of which were carrying what appeared to be a firearm.<\/p>\n
\u201cQuickly, to rule out a possible criminal act, the officers stopped them and requested a preventive search, in accordance with police protocol. Afterward, they found a handgun, eight live ammunition, a brick-shaped package made of duct tape containing approximately two kilograms of apparent marijuana, two cell phones, and cash.<\/p>\n
