SAO PAULO – Police on Friday seized 11 sticks of dynamite found in an abandoned Fiat Strada in suburban São Paulo. The agents located the explosives after an anonymous tip. According to the police, the informant said that the dynamite was to be used in an ATM robbery, reported O Dia online.
The police went to an address on Azevedo Soares Street in downtown Franco da Rocha where they found the vehicle parked and with the doors open. Police staked out the car waiting for the bandits to return, but no one came.
