Fire to hide traces Delegate Marcela Freitas, who is head of the Limoeiro Police Station and is investigating the case, reported that military police responded to the fire. "At the scene, one of the victims was found, who was already in a state of death, unfortunately, and another victim who was alive, but extremely injured. She was rescued, treated by a team of doctors and remains hospitalized," said the delegate in a video sent to g1. Still according to the delegate, the evidence is that the fire was set by the attacker to cover up traces of the feminicide. "According to preliminary information, the victims were drinking alcohol with the suspect in the moments before the incident. It is not known for certain whether there was any argument, and these facts can only be clarified by the people who were present there, by the victim who was rescued. What is known for certain is that the fire could have been caused to make it difficult to investigate the crime in question," said Marcela Freitas. The Scientific Police carried out an investigation at the motel and seized objects to assist in the investigations. It was not known what was seized at the scene.
