Copy of the restraining order would be better proof

I'm an ex-pat living in Brazil (soon not to be). I was robbed at knife-point by 6 guys (15-18), when a bystander called the police the police told me to go to the nearest police station (I have no car, need to take the bus or walk) and report the crime myself. When the bystander said he recognised some of the guys (knew their names and the neighbourhood they're from), the police still refused and said he needs to come to the station too. I knew one day I would be robbed in this god-forsaken city (being a blonde-haired/white-skinned foreigner), but I never in a million years thought that police would refuse to send a patrol for aggravated robbery.
