The piece of wood became a police file in Casadora, in the Midwest of Santa Catarina. A 31-year-old man was arrested after using a tree to pretend he was armed and robbing a market. The crime happened this Friday afternoon (21).
What the attacker did not expect was that he would be arrested by the prime minister (military police) soon after. The crime took place on one of the central streets in the Martello area.
According to police information, the author announced the robbery at around 12:00 pm and stole about 460 reais from a cashier at the market after ratting out a customer and an employee.
Pretend you’re using a gun with a piece of wood
Internal camera footage showed the author had his hand in his pocket, pretending to be a firearm, but it was later revealed to be a piece of wood.
The Prime Minister managed to find and arrest the suspect less than ten minutes after the robbery. As a result of prompt action, the stolen money was returned, as well as 50 grams of marijuana, which the author carried in his pocket, were seized.
The man denied responsibility for the crime, but the pictures and witnesses prove otherwise. He was taken to the police station and left at the disposal of the Judicial Police for appropriate action.
