Man arrested on suspicion of killing ex-girlfriend and shooting her mother in Diadema (SP)

A man suspected of murdering his ex-girlfriend in Diadema, Brazil, and shooting her mother has been arrested following a police investigation.

A man named Bruno de Oliveira Zani has been arrested in Diadema, a city in the Greater SΓ£o Paulo area, under suspicion for the homicide of his ex-girlfriend and the attempted murder of her mother. His arrest took place on Thursday night, two days after the police initiated a search for him, which followed reports of the incident that occurred on Tuesday night. The authorities had issued a temporary arrest warrant for Zani, highlighting the seriousness of the accusations against him.

The investigation is active within the local police department, and reports indicate that the firearm used in the shooting has been recovered. Furthermore, during the search for Zani, law enforcement found his abandoned vehicle in SΓ£o Bernardo do Campo, along with two pistol magazines and multiple spent shell casings at his residence. These findings are crucial to the ongoing investigation and may corroborate the charges being investigated against him, as they suggest premeditated actions leading to the violence.

The defense team for Zani has been contacted by reporters, but they have yet to provide any statements since their initial message indicating they would release a comment later. As the investigation continues, forensic examinations have been requested from relevant authorities, including the Legal Medical Institute and the Institute of Criminalistics, ensuring a comprehensive examination of the crime scene and the circumstances surrounding this tragic event.
