Failed warehouse robbery attempt
Three armed men attempted to storm an industrial warehouse in Brazil. A security guard prevented them from carrying out their plan.
On the night of September 15, 2025, three armed men attempted to storm an industrial warehouse in the Câmara neighborhood of Aquiraz, Ceará state, Brazil. Local media reported that the site was used by service provider Enel Distribuicao (a division of the state-owned energy company in Ceará).
A security guard opened fire as the men attempted to break into the guard post, killing two suspects on the spot. The third attacker fled. One media outlet reported that after being wounded, the suspect snatched a weapon from his comrade and committed suicide. However, no official source has confirmed this suicide.
State public safety officials say the case is under investigation, weapons have been recovered, and the remaining suspect is being sought, but they are not linking the break-in to any specific criminal group, suggesting it is a local robbery ring rather than an established organization.
