than 100 weapons, including Barret rifles, to equip the state police,
said Francisco Manuel Cordova Celaya.

The head of the SSP said that the purchase is already requested and
failure to authorize the Secretary of National Defense. "They
requested an order for more heavy weapons, hopefully is approved the
sale by the armed forces in order to better serve our police," he said.

"Barretts we want 10, 12 more weapons, and need 100 more rifles and
handguns also."

He noted that with better equipment agents will have more tools to
fight crime and confront the criminals when they are attempting to
attack them.
"Made much more complicated in an ambush, because at the time that
offenders typically ride in armored cars to protect them and with
these high-caliber weapons against armor would help a lot," he said.

Córdova Celaya, forward to next year intends to purchase more heavy
vehicles for local corporations.

State Preventive Police already has two 50-caliber Barrett rifles,
delivered as a loan by the Ministry of National Defense, and two
armored 'Tiger', in a lease package.
