Minas Gerais military police arrested a 43-year-old man in the Santa Tereza
neighbourhood late on Tuesday 3 November 2026.[1]The operation took place at
about 6 p.m. on Rua dos Professores and was carried out by teams of the 63rd
Military Police Battalion (63º BPM), a regional unit of the state military
police.[1]The patrols said they acted after receiving information and
carrying out inquiries in the area before approaching one suspect.[1]Officers
also identified a second man, aged 35, who initially managed to flee.[1]
During the search of the 43-year-old, officers found one bucha of maconha, a
small retail pack of cannabis, and R$ 207 in cash.[1]The 35-year-old fled
through scrubland when he saw the police teams, but officers searched the area,
tracked him down and identified him.[1]Police then searched the residences of
both men involved.[1]At the 43-year-old’s house they found two more buchas of
maconha and three crack stones.[1]At the second suspect’s residence they
found three more buchas of maconha.[1]In total, officers reported six buchas
of maconha and three crack stones, plus the R$ 207 in cash.[1]
The 43-year-old was arrested and taken to the Delegacia de Polícia, the civil
police station, with all the seized material for further legal steps.[1]The
account attributes its information to the Minas Gerais military police.[1]
No weight was published for the six cannabis portions, so no kilograms can be recorded.
The R$ 207 is seized cash, not an official drug valuation, so no value is recorded.
The three crack stones are excluded from cannabis figures under the substance scope.
The article names the neighbourhood and street but no municipality, so the report places the event at that street in Santa Tereza, Minas Gerais with region-level coordinates.
The 3 November 2026 incident date is inferred from the article's reference to Tuesday the 3rd and its 4 November 2026 publication date.
No charges or court outcome were reported beyond transfer to the police station.
The fate of the identified 35-year-old, who fled and was later tracked down, was not reported beyond identification.
Only one accessible account of this event was found after searching for a second report.
The page's credited PMMG image shows the Santa Tereza area rather than the seizure itself, so no media entry is included.
