According to information passed on by the victims, Said broke into a distributor where the breed cat lived and took her. As they noticed the animal’s disappearance, the owners checked the security circuit images and found the theft. The cat, with about 10 years of living with the family, has great sentimental value and is considered a member of the house.
In possession of the images and seeing the suspect walking through the center, the victims quickly called the Military Police, who located and approached the man. After analyzing the images, the police confirmed the crime and gave a voice of arrest to the accused, who was sent to the 1st Regional Police Station, where he will remain available to the court.
