A 42-year-old man was arrested in Cambará, Paraná, following a series of attacks and threats against a local family. The suspect, who signed threatening notes under the pseudonym “Justiceiro Secreto” (Secret Vigilante), was apprehended on a highway near the municipality after attempting to flee from police.

The violence began on August 27, when the suspect entered an educational institution and vandalized a teacher's vehicle, damaging the bodywork and piercing the hood. He left a note containing threats directed at the teacher and her relatives. The situation escalated on August 29, following the death of a victim's father, when the family's residence was targeted and another vehicle in their garage was set on fire.
