A recent operation by the Military Police in Óbidos, located in the west of Pará, resulted in the seizure of around 1 kilogram of illegal drugs on the night of October 26. This operation, part of the broader 'Operation Zero Tolerance', was initiated after receiving a tip-off about a residence on Rua Antônio Fernandes suspected of being a narcotics sales point that operated exclusively at night. The area in question is characterized as a village of kit residences, with the targeted home being the first identified drug selling location, according to police reports.

Following the tip-off, police established surveillance in the vicinity and observed significant pedestrian and motorcycle traffic indicative of drug trafficking activity. As a result, officers approached a man who had just exited the suspected house. Upon conducting a personal search, they reportedly discovered him in possession of a packaged drug. The successful operation highlights ongoing efforts by the authorities to combat the drug trade in the region, responding proactively to community concerns about illegal activity in their neighborhoods.

This incident also underscores the importance of public cooperation with law enforcement, as citizen tips played a crucial role in identifying and targeting potential drug hotspots. By continuing to implement such operations and increasing community engagement, the police aim to ensure safer neighborhoods in Óbidos and diminish the prevalence of drug-related crimes.
