According to the medical and Civil Protection authorities, none of those involved were from Jocotepec, they were all from Zapopan and Cerro del Cuatro in Guadalajara and they added that they were on their way to a baseball game.
The reason for the fatal accident is still unknown, Oscar Rameño, Director of Mobility of Jocotepec. The Jalisco Institute of Forensic Sciences (IJCF) is reviewing the accident.
However, according to Civil Protection authorities, the main causes of accidents, specifically in the El Molino stretch, are mostly due to speeding, since it is a drastically reduced stretch, causing drivers to lose control.
So far this year, as of January 20, there have already been three accidents, involving a dairy truck that overturned and a private van whose driver was injured.
Civil Protection authorities urged the community to take the appropriate precautions when traveling along the stretch and to respect the speed limits because «your life can be changed in a split second.»

The officers, who were carrying out surveillance work in the area, arrested the man driving the car who was found to be in possession of prohibited substances.

During their search, the officers spotted the vehicle at the intersection of Guerrero and Cuauhtémoc streets. Upon being detected, the man driving the car tried to run over the officers, so they fired shots at the tires of the car to apprehend him safely.

Héctor Ruiz Mejía – Despite the increase in the positivity rate from 7.2 percent to 23.4 percent in Jalisco for the coronavirus, the municipality of Jocotepec decided to continue with the festivities for the “Señor del Monte.”
Even though the Health Ministry and the Governor of Jalisco, Enrique Alfaro Ramírez, announced new health measures effective on January 14, in which all types of events such as patron saint festivities, carnivals and massive events were canceled, Jocotepec decided not to cancel the ongoing festivities. «I cannot cancel the entire economy. The decree indicates a start date and it must be an individual choice to attend or not,» said José Miguel Gómez López.
The municipal president explained that the new health measures were announced when the festivities were already well underway. The festival began on January 6th with the “Entrada de Cera” parade, so the festivities were allowed to continue.
«Two years ago when the pandemic started, people did not know how to take care of themselves. Today, the population is aware of the correct safety measures. They already have all the knowledge necessary to protect themselves and can take individual responsibility for whether to go out or not,” added Gómez.
The President of Jocotepec said that it would have been worse to cancel the business generated by the festivities. Photo: Héctor Ruiz.
On Tuesday, January 11, the Civil Protection and Firefighters Unit (UPCB) of Jocotepec, in conjunction with municipal authorities, reported that at least 30 percent of the merchants did not abide by the appropriate safety measures.
«The incidents that persisted the most, where participants were given a warning to comply with the measures, was in the use of masks and antibacterial gel,» explained municipal authorities.
They also explained that skepticism regarding the use of masks and the pandemic itself was prevalent among the elderly, who are one of the segments of the population most vulnerable to the disease.
The municipal president condemned accusations against him for being negligent and irresponsible for allowing the festivities to continue. He pointed out that the municipality has taken all possible measures to safeguard the well-being of the inhabitants of Jocotepec. However, “it is the people who can voluntarily decide to respect the measures or not,” he said.

Sofía G., mother of the child, and her partner, Marcos Alberto G., were under the influence of narcotics at the time of the crime.
The mother of a 14-month boy and her partner have been charged with parricide, which is murder of a close relative, and aggravated homicide in the boy’s recent death.
The investigation by the Regional Prosecutor’s Office assigned to Chapala found that on December 31, Sofia G., the boy’s mother, and her partner, Marcos Alberto G., were under the influence of narcotics in a home on Hidalgo street in Chapala’s Atotonilquillo neighborhood. The investigation revealed that the child began to cry because he was hungry. The accused hit the child repeatedly and threw him onto the floor. He sustained a skull fracture that caused his death.
When the prosecutor’s office learned of the child’s death, an investigation began that led to a judge approving an arrest warrant against the couple. After evidence was gathered, the mother and her partner went before the judge, who decided to commit them to trial for the crime of parricide and ordered them to serve one year of official preventive detention as a precautionary measure.
