In a violent incident on the evening of February 24, two 25-year-old men died during a confrontation with the Military Police (PM) after allegedly robbing a motorcycle along Rodovia João Beira in Pedreira, São Paulo. The police were called to the scene of the robbery, where the suspects were reported to be armed. Utilizing a tracking system, the police located the suspects, but upon noticing the approaching officers, the two men attempted to flee.

During the ensuing chase, the suspects engaged the police in gunfire, prompting the agents to return fire. According to the São Paulo State Public Security Secretariat (SSP), the officers' response resulted in the deaths of both individuals before medical assistance could reach the scene. Paramedics confirmed the deaths on-site. The motorcycle involved in the robbery was later returned to its rightful owner, while the weapons used in the confrontation were seized by the police.

The matter has since been recorded at the Jaguariúna Police Station, and further investigations may follow to clarify the circumstances surrounding the robbery and the police response. This incident reflects the ongoing challenges that law enforcement face in dealing with armed robbery situations, particularly in urban areas where such crimes occur frequently, leading to heightened risks for both officers and the public.
