A man identified as the person in charge of a tourism bus parking lot was arrested during an inspection operation on Friday morning in São Pedro da Aldeia, located in the Lagos region of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The inspection was part of a focused operation targeting irregular tourist activities, and the arrest is noteworthy as the individual was already a fugitive with an outstanding arrest warrant for drug trafficking, issued by the Supreme Federal Court (STF).

It followed intelligence reports indicating the location of the fugitive, illustrating a collaborative effort among various law enforcement agencies to tackle crime related to drug trafficking and irregular tourism operations.
