Pregnant woman alerts police with pizza code and partner is detained for threats in Botucatu
A 41-year-old woman, two months pregnant, resorted to a stratagem to seek help without alerting the aggressor: she simulated a pizza order when calling the Police Military's emergency number 190. The case occurred on Monday (21st) in Botucatu, in the interior of São Paulo, and was reported by g1.globo.com.
In the audio of the call, the victim requests a pizza delivery from the police officer. The officer, understanding the situation, confirms the address, verifies whether the suspect was still on the premises, and dispatches a patrol car immediately.
The transcript of the call records the dialogue:
> Police: Military Police, emergency. > Victim: Can you deliver a pizza for me on the street... > Police: What is your name? / What city is it? > Victim: Botucatu. > Police: Is the aggressor on site? > Victim: Yes. > Police: Alright. A patrol car will be heading to the location as soon as possible. Just wait. > Victim: Thank you very much.
According to the incident report, the assault began during an argument. The partner, 48 years old, allegedly made death threats against the woman with two knives. In a statement to the Military Police, the victim reported that the man was under the influence of drugs at the time of the incident.
The suspect was arrested in flagrante for violence against a woman. The victim received care at a municipal health facility and was advised of her rights, including the possibility of requesting protective measures. The case was registered at the Botucatu Police Sectional Police Station.
