The popular singer of the so-called ‘corridos tumbados,’ Peso Pluma, who last July announced his Doble P Tour, received threats signed by the Jalisco Cartel – New Generation (CJNG) through banners placed on different bridges in the city of Tijuana. The criminal group left three messages in which they demanded that he not appear on October 14 at a concert he had scheduled in Tijuana.
According to media reports, the banners were located early Tuesday morning, September 12, when a report was received by authorities at approximately 1:46 a.m. The first message was located on the vehicular bridge on the Second Street extension avenue and Mirador Boulevard in front of the La Isla subdivision.
A second message was located on the west expressway near the División Norte neighborhood, and a third one was on Ferrocarril Street and Cuauhtémoc Boulevard, in the Libertad neighborhood.

What Did the Banners Threatening Peso Pluma Say?
The three banners, white with red letters, had the same text threatening Peso Pluma, who is scheduled to perform in Tijuana on October 14 at the Caliente Stadium.
“This goes for you, Peso Pluma. Refrain from presenting yourself on October 14 because it will be your last presentation for being disrespectful and loose tongue. You show up, and we will break all your f****ng *ss. Att. CJNG,” the banner said.
It is known that elements of the National Guard removed the banners, although they were unable to identify all those responsible for placing them. There is only one detainee, who was allegedly arrested for possession of illicit substances.

Given the threats, the Mayor of Tijuana, Monserrat Caballero, is analyzing whether or not to carry out the concert; although, at this moment, she mentioned that at this time, they have not determined that there is a risk in the presentation of the singer.
It should be recalled that on March 4, 2023, the presentation of Peso Pluma together with the singers “El Fantasma”, Edén Muñoz and Edición Especial was canceled due to the wave of violence and threats against the members of Grupo Arriesgado. Meanwhile, the authorities, headed by the regional prosecutor Edgar Mendoza, said that after the discovery of the banners, investigations were initiated to find those responsible for those who placed them.
