Segundo a denúncia,  o crime aconteceu no bairro Cidade Tiradentes, na Zona Leste de São Paulo, enquanto a vítima e seu companheiro andavam pela rua. A confusão teve início no momento em que uma viatura da Polícia Militar passou perto do casal e colidiu com o braço do homem. De acordo com o Ministério Público, com a escalada do desentendimento, a policial disparou um tiro de calibre .40 que atingiu a mulher na região abdominal. Segundo relato do companheiro da vítima, ele perdeu o equilíbrio e acabou atingindo o retrovisor da viatura policial com o braço. Os agentes pararam para averiguar o ocorrido, dando início a uma confusão. Os policiais declararam que precisaram empregar força física para conter o casal. A acusação aponta que o emprego de força letal foi injustificado. Além disso, Thawanna permaneceu desamparada por mais de meia hora no local do crime, agonizando devido ao ferimento antes de ser socorrida. A vítima foi atendida pelo Samu e levada ao Hospital Tiradentes, mas não resistiu aos ferimentos e morreu.   *Estagiário da Agência Brasil sob supervisão de Odair Braz Junior
