Woman arrested after jumping a barbed-wire wall and stealing chickens from her own father in MG

A woman was arrested in Brazil for stealing two chickens from her father after causing a disturbance outside his house.

A 28-year-old woman was arrested by the Military Police in Patos de Minas, Brazil, following an incident in which she jumped over a barbed-wire fence to steal two chickens from her father. The conflict originated when the father, a 68-year-old man, reported his daughter's erratic behavior outside his house, where she was demanding money and shouting while wielding a piece of wood. This situation was compounded by the fact that the father had previously been assaulted by his daughter, leading him to refrain from opening the gate for her.

According to the police report, the daughter is currently homeless and living in precarious conditions. Her father has been taking care of her five-year-old daughter, while the woman's nine-year-old son lives with his father. The situation reflects broader social issues regarding family dynamics and homelessness in Brazil, highlighting the challenges faced by families dealing with mental health and financial instability.

After the initial reports, the woman managed to leave before the police arrived; however, she was arrested shortly thereafter. The case underscores the complexities of familial relationships when distressing events unfold, especially in vulnerable circumstances.
