According to information from the Military Police, the suspects entered the establishment at the moment the cash register was being closed, announced the robbery and captured the employees, causing panic at the scene.
The criminal action caught the attention of people passing by on the avenue and were surprised by the movement inside the pharmacy. Given the suspicion, the Military Police were called.
Teams from the 1st PM Battalion, with support from BOPE and Rotam, quickly arrived at the address and began negotiating with the assailants, who ended up surrendering without any injuries. Both were arrested while still inside the establishment.
During the incident, the police seized dietary supplements, medicines, watches, cell phones, a sum of money and a simulated firearm, similar to a .38 caliber revolver, used to intimidate the victims during the crime.
The duo was taken to the Flagrantes Police Station (Defla), along with all the seized material, where it was made available to the courts for the appropriate procedures.
