What Happened To Fuerza Regida?
The famous American regional Mexican music band was the target of a brutal armed attack that ultimately claimed the life of one of its members. As they travelled along the Puebla-Orizaba highway on August 29, 2023, the popular American local Mexican music band Fuerza Regida was the target of an armed robbery. The tragic outcome of the incident was the loss of life. Let’s start with the history.
The band Fuerza Regida was leaving for a show in Cancun. The group has made waves in the music industry by having their song “Bebé dame,” a collaboration with Grupo Frontera, emerge on the Board’s Hot 100 chart.
On the treacherous Puebla-Orizaba route in the early morning hours of August 29, a truck affiliated with the Fuerza Regida security group became trapped by an armed commando. Because of a string of violent incidents, including burglary, assaults, and car accidents, this road has a bad reputation in Mexico.
Imagen del Golfo journalist Guillermo Carreón published photos of a bullet-riddled van, presumably the one in which the security force Fuerza Regida was travelling. The severely hurt renters went to the Rio Blanco Local Hospital in Veracruz for medical attention.
During the attack, sadly, one of the squad members was killed. An escort named Jorge Morales died from his wounds at the local hospital in Ro Blanco. According to reports, the security team comprised ex-members of the Mexican military.
