- Four cars supported the assault, including one altered at the rear to mount long guns for firing from inside the vehicle.
- Explosives were used to try to breach the vault, overturning the armored truck and igniting a fire captured in images from the scene.
- The escort guards were not injured, and authorities have not confirmed whether any money was taken.
- Both directions of the Rodovia Luiz de Queiroz were blocked as DER teams assisted, police secured the area, and forensic technicians collected evidence.
