Vila Isabel, na Zona Norte do Rio de Janeiro, desponta como o bairro com maior número de tiroteios registrados nos primeiros 15 dias deste ano, segundo dados do Instituto Fogo Cruzado.

O Morro dos Macacos é palco de uma disputa acirrada entre as facções criminosas Comando Vermelho (CV) e Terceiro Comando Puro (TCP), que buscam o domínio territorial. A localização estratégica da comunidade, próxima ao Parque Nacional da Tijuca, oferece um “atalho” para a Zona Oeste, tornando-se um ponto estratégico na tentativa de expansão do CV, que já mira áreas como Gardênia Azul.

Os conflitos se intensificaram com a atuação de traficantes do Morro do São João, no Engenho Novo, localizado a apenas 4 km de distância. Essa proximidade facilita a mobilização de criminosos, aumentando a frequência dos confrontos. Em resposta à escalada de violência, a Polícia Militar realizou mudanças no comando da Unidade de Polícia Pacificadora (UPP) do Morro dos Macacos no início do mês. O capitão José Eduardo Brito Benck assumiu a chefia, substituindo o capitão Leonardo Rezende Brandão.

No histórico recente, Vila Isabel já figurava como líder em casos de violência armada. Em dezembro de 2024, o bairro registrou 22 tiroteios, resultando em cinco mortes e dois feridos. A guerra é comandada por Pedro Paulo Lucas Adriano do Nascimento, conhecido como “Titauro”, apontado como a principal liderança do CV na tentativa de tomar o Morro dos Macacos. Foragido desde maio de 2024, ele responde a acusações de homicídio qualificado e ocultação de cadáver.

As autoridades seguem monitorando a situação, enquanto moradores enfrentam dias marcados por medo e insegurança em meio à violência armada que assola a região.
