According to her account on Oro Noticias radio, an elderly man\u2014around 60 years old and dressed in black\u2014threw a large white object at her car, seemingly to force her to stop.  <\/p>\n<p>Mar\u00eda was driving along Perif\u00e9rico Ecol\u00f3gico when she approached the exit to Recta a Cholula. From a distance, the man hurled what appeared to be either a stone or a large box at her vehicle. The object struck the hood of her BYD car, narrowly missing the windshield. The intent seemed clear: to make her stop, possibly to rob or harm her.  <\/p>\n<p>What raised Mar\u00eda\u2019s alarm further was the man\u2019s behavior after the throw. Instead of fleeing, he returned to pick up the object, increasing her suspicion and fear. Choosing caution, she kept driving until she reached a safe spot, where she noticed the damage to her car\u2019s hood.  <\/p>\n<p>This incident highlights a worrying trend in the area, where criminals are adopting new tactics to intimidate and rob drivers. Mar\u00eda\u2019s call to local authorities urges them to increase security on Recta a Cholula and investigate whether the suspect remains in the area.  <\/p>\n<p>For those living or commuting in Puebla, this serves as a reminder to stay vigilant, especially in zones known for such incidents. While the city continues to develop infrastructure projects like the upcoming cable car system, which promises safer and more efficient transit options, addressing street-level security remains crucial.  <\/p>\n<p>By reinforcing public safety alongside innovative transport solutions, Puebla can create a more inclusive and secure environment for all residents and visitors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the morning of Friday, July 3, 2026, a mother named Mar\u00eda experienced a disturbing new form of attack while merging onto Recta a Cholula, a busy road in Puebla.
