The state Secretary of Public Security reported that the group of people was detected by air travel through the coastal area of the state, camping on Isla Cortés, a beach in the municipality of Navolato.
The aircraft personnel requested help on the ground, so some units went to search for them.
At the site there were three units with around 20 people, among them minors, who played in the sand and who were asked to leave the place and go directly to their homes, otherwise, they could be detained.
The authorities have been touring the beaches, rivers, and waterparks to prevent people from coming in the middle of the contingency and are instructed to send them to the railing in case they do not comply with the recommendations of the police.
Sinaloa residents continue camping in bays despite contingency
Because families cross in boats to camp on islands and bays to spend Easter, it was reported that if these areas are not evacuated, they will be sent to the National Guard and the Army to avoid these types of activities, not allowed due to the health contingency.
