The motorcyclist who was shot dead in Cachoeirinha, in the Metropolitan Region, on Monday night has been identified. The victim is Carlos Henrique Pontes, known as Chico, 34 years old. He had no criminal record, except for when he was a teenager, for damage and driving without a license, which are considered minor offenses.
The murder occurred around 8 pm, on Manoel Inácio Nunes Street, near Marechal Rondon Avenue, in the Parque Espírito Santo neighborhood. A security camera recorded the execution.
The images show that the man fell off his motorcycle, after having his front cut off by another motorcycle, driven by a pair of men. While he was still on the ground, one of the crew members got off and fired about 10 shots, in the chest and head.
It is also possible to hear the audio of the footage, which captured the victim's pleas not to die, seconds before being shot. Those involved in the murder fled. No one has been arrested so far.
Chico worked in a motorcycle repair shop. According to people close to him, it is not ruled out that debts may have motivated the crime. The 2nd DP of Cachoeirinha, under the leadership of delegate Milena Simioli, is investigating the case.
