Security worries on V\u00eda Atlixc\u00e1yotl in Puebla have flared up again after journalist H\u00e9ctor Rodrigo Ortiz reported on Tuesday a new alleged attack linked to the so-called \u201cAtlixc\u00e1yotl shooter.\u201d <\/p>\n
Ortiz shared on his X account that the latest victim was one of his closest friends, who recounted the incident that took place in the early hours of Thursday around 4:00 a.m. The event occurred on V\u00eda Atlixc\u00e1yotl, just past the Ni\u00f1o Poblano bridge heading toward Atlixco. <\/p>\n
\u201cAnother one from the Atlixc\u00e1yotl shooter! This time it was my best friend, and he just told me,\u201d Ortiz wrote. <\/p>\n
The affected individual is already in the process of filing a formal complaint with the authorities. Ortiz used this case to question whether law enforcement agencies are taking concrete steps to identify and stop the person responsible. \u201cHe\u2019s already filing a complaint. Are the authorities taking action yet?\u201d he asked. <\/p>\n
In recent weeks, multiple drivers have reported attacks while driving on this major artery of Puebla\u2019s metropolitan area. These incidents involve damage to windshields, windows, and car bodies, allegedly caused by projectiles or stones thrown at moving vehicles, mostly during early morning hours when traffic is light. <\/p>\n
Although no official confirmation links all these events or confirms a single perpetrator, the term \u201cAtlixc\u00e1yotl shooter\u201d has gained traction on social media to describe these attacks. <\/p>\n
Calls for increased surveillance have grown, especially near the Ni\u00f1o Poblano bridge and other hotspots where similar incidents have been reported. Authorities have yet to issue a specific statement on this latest case, but the victim\u2019s complaint is expected to help advance investigations. <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, daily commuters on V\u00eda Atlixc\u00e1yotl are urged to exercise extra caution during early morning hours amid fears that attacks on vehicles may continue. <\/p>\n
This situation highlights the ongoing challenges of urban security in Puebla and the importance of proactive measures to protect residents and commuters alike.<\/p>\n
