Rayllan was taken to the Sao Goncalo emergency hospital but died from his injuries.
Police said the officer was off duty when he was shot after leaving a gym near a shopping centre on Avenida Presidente Kennedy.
The attackers fled towards the Niteroi-Manilha highway and the killing is being investigated by the homicide division covering Niteroi, Sao Goncalo and Itaborai.
Rayllan had previously survived another attempt on his life in September 2025 when he was shot in the Barro Vermelho neighbourhood of Sao Goncalo.
He underwent surgery at Alberto Torres State Hospital and was later discharged following treatment.
