Assaltantes devolvem celular e matam publicitário com tiros nas costas em SP

Gabriel, a 20-something advertising professional and volunteer, was fatally shot twice in the back by robbers in São Paulo; his wife was injured but survived.

On a street in the southern zone of São Paulo, a young man named Gabriel was shot dead by robbers who had just handed back his phone — a gesture of indifference that preceded an act of lethal violence. He was in his twenties, a professional, a musician, a volunteer, a husband; the kind of person whose life radiates outward into a community. His death, classified as latrocínio under Brazilian law, is both a statistic in an ongoing crisis of urban violence and an irreplaceable human absence felt most acutely in the neighborhood that called him Zacka.
