"This City Council has always worked to guarantee citizen security, and on days such as Christmas Eve or New Year's Eve it was our duty to reinforce the service with the USCI agents," says the mayor, Astrid Pérez.
Regarding the days of December 24 and 31, regardless of the night service, both the 24th and the 31st are reinforced with the Citizen Security and Intervention Unit (USCI), whose agents will carry out prevention work.
