The operation was part of proactive crime suppression efforts in the region. Following a tip-off about suspicious individuals, officers trailed a brown Suzuki Ciaz car. The vehicle’s occupants fled in different directions when officers approached, but two suspects were apprehended. They were taken to the San Juan Police Station for further questioning while their vehicle was impounded.
