Playa Del Carmen Drops Millions on Heavy Metal Security
Playa del Carmen received a historic security upgrade: 334 vehicles (including an armored unit) and a helicopter. Led by Gov. Lezama and Mayor Mercado, the 200M+ peso investment aims to enhance police capabilities, safety, and citizen tranquility. Plans include 100 new officers.
Beneath the sun-drenched, margarita-fueled veneer of Playa del Carmen, where turquoise waters meet bustling tourist thoroughfares, a different kind of heavy metal just rolled into town. Forget the latest DJ set; we're talking serious hardware.
In a ceremony brimming with political significance and the unmistakable scent of new tires, Quintana Roo Governor Mara Lezama Espinosa and Solidaridad Mayor Estefanía Mercado unveiled what's being hailed as a "historic reinforcement" of the municipality's security apparatus. The guest list? A gleaming fleet of 334 vehicles and, adding a touch of cinematic flair, a dedicated helicopter.
