Rosario Robles says her daughter was forced from her car on Mexico-Puebla highway
Former Mexican official Rosario Robles says her daughter was forced from her car on the Mexico-Puebla highway on Tuesday.
Robles said Mariana Moguel Robles was safe after the incident.
She said the people involved were setting vehicles on fire and making demands linked to a prison.
Earlier that day, families of San Miguel prison inmates blocked parts of the highway, alleging extortion and other irregularities at the prison.
The families want the prison director removed.
Robles urged President Claudia Sheinbaum to respond, saying violent incidents on highways happen repeatedly.
The sources do not say whether officials have announced an investigation or other next steps.
