LAHT/ Officials report that 178 municipal officers - 40% of Monterrey’s entire police force - either resigned or were fired after an anti-corruption screening. Mayor Fernando Larrazabal ordered the police force’s 14 command-level officers and 600 patrolmen to be subjected to five evaluations to weed out officers suspected of ties to drug traffickers. About 400 officers remain while 150 cadets are being trained in this city of over 2 million.
