The investigation showed that the crime was motivated by a commercial disagreement between Harley and the victim, involving an unfinished mechanical service.

Security camera footage captured all the action. The videos show the moment when the suspects arrive in a white Onix car and get out of the vehicle armed.

Arley allegedly claimed that Helton was in possession of drugs, using this information to convince others to participate in the murder.

During the search at Aladdin’s house, three firearms and several ammunition were seized. The material was sent to forensics.

Aladdin and Harley are arrested and at the disposal of Justice. The third suspect, Márcio Barcellos Armstrong, remains at large, and the police continue to investigate the case.
