Mazatlan’s Pradera Dorada neighborhood faces an increase in theft and assaults

Neighbors of the Colonia say that at any time of the day they are victims of crime

Mazatlan, Sinaloa.- Every morning, Martha accompanies her children to school, is early in the morning and is still dark, so, for their safety, they walk quickly to arrive as soon as possible. They live on Durazno Street, in Pradera Dorada II, where neighbors suffer from constant assaults and robberies in their homes, due to the lack of vigilance and darkness in which they stay at night, since many of the street lights do not turn on

The main thing that the authority should solve here is the lighting, on the street where I live many lamps do not turn on, at 5:30 in the morning one gets up to accompany the boys to school and it is very dark, there are three or four lamps in a row that do not turn on and in the dark one is more vulnerable to being assaulted.

Insecurity has increased in recent months in the area, both at night and during the day, as the inhabitants claim that there are many vulnerable points within the colony where patrols and police do not pass.

Óscar commented that the lighting around the Kindergarten, on Nanchi and Laurel Street, is inefficient and that at night it looks like “wolf’s mouth”.

What is missing here is the street lighting, the lamp in front of the kindergarten is off every time and it is very dark, and that brings a lot of insecurity, also more cleaning here to the surroundings of the school.
