The mayor of Tijuana, Montserrat Caballero, has moved into military barracks for her safety after she received threats, the Mexico’s president said on Tuesday.
Caballero, who is a member of Lopez Obrador’s National Regeneration Movement known as Morena, told reporters in a video shared on social media on Monday that she had received more threats after confiscating 1,700 firearms from criminal groups and detaining 56 people.
Tijuana has become one of Mexico’s more dangerous cities as criminal groups fight over drug trafficking routes into the United States.
