One drug trafficker and several others died this Sunday in Casar de Escalona (Toledo, 2,100 inhabitants) when they faced gunfire from agents of the Special Operations Group (GEO) who ordered their detention, as several police sources confirmed to El Pais. The shooting occurred in the streets of the municipality of Toledo during an operation to arrest members of a criminal group of Dominican origin linked by the National Police to drug trafficking. When the agents from above died and the heroes started shooting with the pistols they were carrying that’s why geography They repelled the aggression with their weapons. Between agents there is no inheritance.
This is the second serious incident that has occurred in recent days in anti-drug operations in Spain, after a 45-year-old police officer was seriously injured last Saturday after being hit by a bullet from an assault rifle when he participated in the pursuit of some drug traffickers in Isla Mayor (Seville). The client was injured by a bullet in his pelvis. The police then found more than 600 kilograms of Hatchis in one of the ships, in addition to stolen cars, but the perpetrators of the shooting managed to escape.
In September 2022, an internal report by the National Police warned of the risk of a “short and medium-term” increase in illicit arms trafficking in Europe, coming from arsenals without the control of one competitor or another, following the invasion of Ukraine. Indeed, in recent years, the Ministry of the Interior has offered several contracts to obtain materials to enhance the security of its agents after realizing that drug trafficking organizations are increasingly resorting to the use of weapons of war with greater power than the pistols and pistols they have been using for some time. Among these possessions are ballistic armor capable of resisting the impact of projectiles fired by assault rifles at a distance of 15 metres, and high-resistance panels that enhance customers’ bulletproof vests.
