Ruan de Paula Ferreira, 23, was arrested and two teenagers-16 and 17 years old-were seized on Wednesday afternoon, 23, for drug trafficking during an action by military police of the 1st Battalion, Rua Samaúma, Portal da Amazônia, Rio Branco.

The police garrison was patrolling routine in the region when they spotted the three suspects in an attitude considered suspicious. Upon noticing the approach of the car, one of the individuals threw a package into a backyard. After the approach, the agents located the package, which contained narcotics. During a scan in the area, the team also found a pot with more drugs.
The team called the support of the Dog Policing Company (CPCães), which conducted additional searches. Although they no longer find drugs, police officers located other trafficking related materials.
One detail caught the eye during the testimony of one of the minors: he said he was a student and beneficiary of the federal program, who encourages the permanence of students in high school. The young man told the police that he used the amount received through the benefit – guarded with discipline and without missing classes – to, along with the cronies, acquire narcotics and start a point of sale in the neighborhood.
The action of the Military Police frustrated the plan and resulted in the conduct of the three involved to the Flagrant Police Station (Defla), where they are available to the court.
