Arrest at Tropical Wed night
Beers and liquors bought from HK are allowed in Tropical and vice versa, as both bars are owned by the same party and guys cross the street back and forth to both. Liquor bottles and beers in hotels have bars' labels, but beers sold in bars have none. Tropical security guys are very careful checking bottles to make sure guys don't sneak in outside beers.
Wednesday night I was waiting for my Tropical girl to show, went outside, left my beer with security guard to smoke on the sidewalk in front of the bar. 3 Mexican guys, staying at Rizo with white wrist bands, went down to Tropical with beer bottles, apparently claimed they were bought in Rizo. Security guys would not let them bring the beers in. The guys argued with security, not in loud or aggressive manners but security still refused, 2 guys dropped and shattered their beer bottles on the sidewalk. Chato, Tropical's burly and bearded GM came out working the issue, but quickly got really mad, called in policia.
Within 1 minute a Policia Municipal pick up truck showed up with 2 cops. They rounded up 3 guys, questioning them. Then 2 more trucks and 3 moto cops immediately showed up. They questioned the guys and Tropical's GM and workers. Looked like Tropical accused them of drinking on sidewalk and assaulting security. Polcia quickly cuffed 3 guys together and ordered them to get onto the truck bed. A Tropical's mesero vouched for the guy who did not drop his beer; policia quickly uncuffed and let him go. The other 2 guys were resisting boarding the truck, quickly got pulled up onto the truck bed by their armpits and driven away. Looks like Tijuana policias are highly experienced in quick loading suspects this way.
This is how quickly small disputes can turn into nasty confrontations and ruin your visit in Tijuana. When you have problems at the bars, it's best not to threaten or abuse anyone verbally or physically and risk being arrested. Insist on seeing managers and try to resolve problems quietly, or just give up fighting bars' workers over small change. Workers and managers at Tijuana's putas bars have to deal with some nastiest people in Mexico, including the extremely violent cartels, so they can be very rough when challenged. I had a complaint against a Tropical girl price jacking me, just to see how Tropical handle complaints. Chato handled it fairly, took his time, let both sides air their grievances, let the girl go without disciplining her, then quietly refunded my money.
In this Wed night confrontation, he was visibly angry, told me nothing happened with the guys, even ordered me back in the bar.
Tijuana once again among world's most violent cities
Tijuana: "In a city of about 2. 2 million people, 105 homicides are committed for every 100,000 residents" Tijuana is second most violent city in thw world.
I agree here. Law enforcement is disorganized & it shows in the Zona.
"The different levels of government don't know how to divide the responsibilities among local, state and federal agencies," she said. "It needs to be clear the governor is coordinating and is in charge, and if the National Guard is involved, it's her responsibility to oversee the federal forces, which don't know how to do police work.

Rosarito required to renew their gun permits. ?
There has been a lot of corruption taking place in Rosarito. So the municipal were required to renew their gun permits. ? The Mexican govt should require checks on all Mexican law enforcement.

Witness said altercation in a trolley car between the man and a few SDPD. He said he had something for them, reached inside his jacket, when he was shot dead.
SDPD is not releasing info. Looks like they are trying to cover their asses.
