This is Cory with the story, here with your quick two-minute update from Canada News today. Four police officers in Rio de Janeiro have been pulled from Shredoody amid an investigation into a deadly raid in the Prezera Spavella. The operation on Wednesday killed seven suspected drug traffickers, including a red command leader and one local resident. Authorities flagged improper use of body cameras during the raid, though details remain unclear. The officers now handle administrative tasks, while the military police internal affairs team digs deeper. In retaliation, suspected gang members torched a bus and blocked roads, prompting five arrests for vandalism. The resident's death has drawn attention to the risks civilian space in these hot spots. About 150 officers swept through Prezeres and nearby favelas, like Fale and Fogotero, to target the gang. This echoes last year's massive operation that left over 120 dead, sparking protests, and demands for the governor to step down. Red command has more than doubled
its reach since last year, and now operates in nearly half the municipalities across Brazil's Amazon region. As the probe continues, real spite against organized crime presses on.
