No weight, packet count or street value was published for the marijuana, crack or cocaine, so no cannabis kilogram figure is recorded.
The outlets give no age, name or prior record for the arrested man, and no charge sheet, custody decision or court outcome was reported.
The 5 November date and the night-time arrest come from the outlets' own text; the incident began during daytime surveillance, so the operation may have started earlier that day.
Radio Clube de Canoinhas calls the location a bairro, while Canoinhas Online calls São Cristóvão a district of Três Barras; the two describe the same neighbourhood.
All three accounts reproduce the same Military Police statement, and the page photos carry no caption or credit establishing that they show this seizure, so the linked picture is listed only as the page's own image.
