In a unique turn of events, a 24-year-old man was detained in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, as part of "Operation Security Present," a campaign aimed at reinforcing security in the region. The man, during his arrival at the 96th Precinct, mimicked a remorseful dog with his tail between his legs, as a nod to the "El Chavo" character from the Mexican TV show.
The man was dressed as "El Chavo del 8" during the arrest, and his behavior during the arrest has become popular on social media. The video, which depicts the detainee's unusual reaction, has been shared by hundreds of users online.
According to police sources and TN, the man confessed to carrying two marijuana cigarettes for personal use. However, the detainee's behavior during the arrest has not resulted in any legal repercussions beyond the initial charges of drug possession and use. The man's detainment and behavior have not been confirmed to be related to any ongoing investigations or events beyond "Operation Security Present."
The detainee's antics during the arrest have garnered sympathy and support from late-night TV hosts in the US. Jimmy Kimmel, who recently faced cancellation by the US broadcaster ABC due to political pressure, found solidarity with the man. Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, Jon Stewart, and David Letterman expressed their support, with Colbert stating, "We are all him."
The news about the man's detainment and behavior has been covered by local media, and the video has been circulating online since the arrest. The man's unusual reaction during the arrest, inspired by the character "El Chavo," has undoubtedly made headlines and sparked conversations on social media. Despite the unusual circumstances, the man's detainment and behavior have not been reported to have any significant impact on the security situation in the region beyond the intended purpose of "Operation Security Present."
