Playa del Carmen, Q.R. — Police at the southern security filter detained a man after he was found carrying a loaded gun. The gun was found after police stopped the driver of a truck who they said, was driving recklessly as he approached the filter.
Watching as he invaded two lanes, police pulled the Dodge Ram over. According to the Ministry of Public Safety and Municipal Traffic, inside were two occupants who were removed from the vehicle and inspected.
One of the men, identified only as a 27-year-old, was found with a loaded gun hidden among his waist. Although he did produce a permit, it was expired. He was transferred to the corporation’s facilities for the corresponding legal purposes.
