**Four State Police Officers Temporarily Removed Following Complaints in Rosarito**

In recent events unfolding in Rosarito, four State Police officers have been temporarily removed from their positions after two formal complaints were lodged. This action follows the State Police’s recent takeover of local security responsibilities on March 7th.

According to Laureano Carrillo Rodríguez, the Baja California Secretary of Citizen Security, the complaints were submitted to the State Attorney General’s Office and the Internal Control Body of the security department. “We’ve received two formal complaints against the state police, and we are actively investigating these matters,” Carrillo Rodríguez stated.

There have also been various allegations floating around on social media, which are being examined, though no additional formal reports have been filed.

**Reassignment Amid Ongoing Investigation**

In terms of the officers’ status, Carrillo Rodríguez confirmed that they have been relocated for their safety during the investigation carried out by the Internal Control Body. “Currently, there is no evidence directly linking them to the accusations, but they have been reassigned as a precautionary measure during the investigation,” he explained.

Since assuming control of Rosarito’s security, State Police have initiated a comprehensive vetting process for the city’s 264 municipal officers. This process includes psychological, medical, and toxicology tests, as well as social background checks, polygraph exams, and a detailed inspection of their firearms.

While it’s relatively uncommon to see officers held accountable for complaints, this move might signal the beginning of necessary reform within Rosarito’s security forces.
