SÃO LUÍS, MARANHÃO, BRAZIL – OCTOBER 4, 2025 Man attempted an armed robbery in the Maiobão area. However, he met resistance when people began shooting at him. He was fatally wounded and, despite first aid provided by bystanders, died from excessive blood loss before emergency services arrived.
Even the life of a robber has the value of a human life and is worth fighting for. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation, always start by calling emergency services. If there is massive bleeding, you must try to stop it at all costs. It is generally recommended to stuff a sterile cloth (for example, a shirt) into the wound and apply pressure. A tourniquet can also be used, which works well on limbs. Until emergency services arrive, monitor basic vital signs.
