The young man identified as Luigi Saymon Lima de Almeida, 19 years old, was shot dead with 17 handgun bullets inside his own home in the Água Mineral neighborhood, northern zone of Teresina. The crime occurred in the early hours of this Saturday (27). According to the 9th BPM, the criminals invaded the house and executed the victim, who was known as “Usain Bolt,” a nickname he earned due to physical similarities with the three-time Olympic athletics champion.
Cidadeverde.com investigated and found that the suspects arrived at the scene shouting “police” and ordered the victim’s family members to move to another room in the house while they committed the murder.
“After forensic work was completed, it was found that the victim was hit with 17 shots from 9mm ammunition, causing multiple injuries to him. The incident was carried out by two unidentified individuals on a motorcycle, with one entering the residence and the other providing coverage in front of the address,” reported the 9th BPM.
Luigi Saymon already had police records. In June of this year, he was acquitted by the Justice in a criminal case for car theft that occurred in 2023.
The case is being investigated by the Department of Homicide and Protection to the Person (DHPP).
