  "description": "Aggregate of two fatal motorcycle-approach armed robberies of single-occupant private cars across São Paulo's affluent-corridor perimeter within 48 hours (May 2026), set against a 14-neighborhood perimeter that Vanguard Attaché extended approximately 5 to 7 km westward (Vila Andrade/Morumbi anchor to Butantã/Rio Pequeno) as the lethal signature crept westward in May, plus a structurally-distinct fatal April antecedent (GCM Sara Andrade, Rodovia dos Imigrantes) on the same motorcycle-approach vector. NOT a '3-in-30-days' signature: the April case is a distinct antecedent, not a third instance.
