Agents of the 15th DP (Gávea) and the Federal Highway Police arrested, last Thursday (23), a member of a gang specialized in the theft of luxury residences in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Its capture took place on the Presidente Dutra Highway.
According to police, the intelligence sector mapped the criminal from an attempted theft to a residence in the Botanical Garden in Rio, six days earlier. The agents were able to identify the used vehicle and began to monitor it.
The criminals remained hidden in a hiding place in Vila Vintém, West Rio, and used another rented vehicle to commit new invasions. This new car was linked to traffickers in the region.
On Thursday, the Civil Police realized that one of the monitored vehicles was on displacement to São Paulo, and then the Federal Highway Police was called to collaborate with a siege that resulted in the arrest. With the criminal, R $ 6,800 in cash were seized, as well as luxury clocks. At the police station, he stated that the other members had already returned to Sao Paulo through a transportation application.
According to investigations, the criminal is part of a gang specializing in discovering bank data of victims with greater financial comfort, and from there, invades his homes performing the theft of luxury belongings. In Rio, they are suspected of a theft in the Tijuca region. Investigations continue.
