An investigative agent with Baja California’s Fiscalía General del Estado (FGE, the state attorney general’s office) reported that her official vehicle was vandalized overnight on May 10 while parked outside her home in Ensenada’s Colonia Jalisco neighborhood.

The agent, assigned to the Specialized Prosecutor’s Office for the Investigation of Forced Disappearances, discovered the damage when she left her house that morning. The state-issued white Ford F-150 pickup, unit number FGE-1145, had all four tires slashed with linear cuts, leaving them completely deflated.

Targeted Damage to a State Law Enforcement Vehicle

The agent filed an official report detailing the damage to the vehicle she had been assigned to safeguard. No suspects have been identified, and authorities have not disclosed whether the vandalism is connected to any active investigation.

The nature of the damage, deliberate cuts to all four tires of a clearly marked state prosecutor’s vehicle, raises the question of whether the act was random or intended as intimidation. The agent works in one of the FGE’s most sensitive divisions, investigating cases of forced disappearance committed both by state actors and private individuals.

Attacks on FGE Personnel in Ensenada

The incident comes against a backdrop of escalating threats to law enforcement personnel in Ensenada. In January 2026, former FGE operational commander Israel Ortiz Castillo was shot and killed inside his official vehicle in Ensenada’s Colonia La Joyita. Ortiz Castillo had recently left his post but remained connected to the agency. No arrests were announced in that case.

Colonia Jalisco, where the vandalized vehicle was parked, sits in central Ensenada, a residential area east of the Avenida Reforma commercial corridor. The neighborhood is not typically associated with high-profile crime.

Authorities have not released a peso estimate of the damage to the Ford F-150. The FGE has not issued a public statement on the incident. The case was first reported by Semanario Zeta.
