“A cold man with no empathy.” This is how Vitor Macedo is described in a Mayan court ruling from 2022. This is a case in which he was sentenced to one year in prison for theft. In January 2020, he took possession of the car and used it for 10 days. Before the car was discovered parked next to the house of the mother of the “catalytic converter king” in Lesa do Baliu, Matosinhos, PSP still crossed paths with him in Bairro da Pasteira in Porto, but managed to escape.
This sentence came just days before he was arrested for hitting cyclists on Estrada Exterior da Circunvalacão. Vitor Macedo is “recognized as a dangerous criminal,” police said.
Some of the victims of the 32-year-old “king of catalysts” were even accused of crimes they never committed. For example, the situation with the car that Vitor stole in January 2020, which he refueled without paying in Maya and drove through the toll. The defendant was the real owner of the car.
More than 200 cases have been filed against Vitor Macedo. Find out about the crimes of the “King of Catalysts” tonight, at 21:30, in the program “Investigação CM” on CMTV.
