The civilian police said there were two cases of attempted murder in the last 30 days in the city of Ibirama. “In both cases, all the perpetrators were identified and arrested,” he said. The arrest took place on Monday (27).

A crime

The victim was stabbed in the left side of the chest, and the crime could have been due to beer. A witness told police that the victim offered a drink to a man at a bar, but he refused.
