On Thursday morning, the Civil Police of Brazil discovered the car used by Luiz Antonio de Oliveira Cruz, the suspect in the murder of his ex-wife, Jaqueline Limeira de Oliveira, in a Morro Agudo snack bar. The tragic incident occurred on the night of Tuesday, the 24th, where Jaqueline was shot multiple times, specifically six, by her ex-husband, leading to widespread shock and concern in the community. Surveillance footage from the location captured the violent act, highlighting the serious issue of domestic violence in Brazil.
The police have confirmed that the car, a Volkswagen Gol, was found damaged in the Jardim São José neighborhood, suggesting it may have been vandalized possibly by individuals seeking vigilante justice.

With the suspect still at large, local authorities are urging the public to remain vigilant and report any sightings of him.
