Authorities identified the suspects as Kevin Robledo Murillo, alias «Dorian,» and Brandon Arrieta Barrios.
How the Robbery Took Place

Following the report, the Secretaría de Seguridad Ciudadana (SSC) launched an investigation that led officers to Centro Valle San Lorenzo, Iztapalapa, where they suspected the criminals were hiding.

After tracking the suspects, authorities spotted suspicious activity in Iztapalapa, specifically at the intersection of Río Argelia and Río Chimalpopoca.
