The teenager reports that the plainclothes police officer was in a car with tinted windows and, as there was no communication, he thought it was a robbery, so he ran until he was shot in the shoulder. "A robbery, I don't know, I just didn't think it was a police officer. If it had been a police officer, if he had communicated right there, I would have stopped. I thought: 'a smoked car, that's it'. I thought I was going to rob until I killed and I started to run, when I heard the noise." The student says that the police officer even asked to look at the backpack, which had a code on the zipper. “Immediately, I said the password, I said: ‘You can look, there’s just a notebook, paper, pencil, there’s my ticket card and my cell phone, and that’s it.’ I only found out that he was an undercover police officer when I had already called the police car.” The teenager was rescued by teams from the Mobile Emergency Care Service (Samu) and taken to the João Pessoa Trauma Hospital. He has already been discharged and is recovering at home, but is still emotionally shaken. "In a simple way out of school, I almost lost my life." The student is a judo and wrestling athlete, participating in several championships. He recently participated in a national judo championship.
