Burglary attacks in Arapongas and Apucarana, Brazil

Police responded to two separate burglary incidents in the state of Paraná, Brazil. In Arapongas, a man forced open the front door and damaged an electric fence to reclaim a cell phone from his former partner’s residence. After retrieving the device, he fled the scene and the victim was advised on legal and protective measures.

In the neighboring town of Apucarana, thieves broke a barbed‑wire fence to enter an 82‑year‑old woman’s home on Avenida Santa Catarina. They stole several items before escaping. Police conducted patrols in the area but did not recover the stolen goods, and the victim’s family was instructed on filing a formal report.
