The body lay motionless on the asphalt as some drivers stopped while others watched from a distance, not quite understanding what had just happened. Minutes later, units from the Fire Department arrived. They placed him on a stretcher and rushed him to the Aquilino Tejeira Hospital, where he received medical attention. So far, the victim's identity or official condition has not been confirmed, although it is presumed that he remains in serious condition. The silence surrounding his name contrasts with the brutality of the event: someone went out onto the street and did not manage to return on their own. Authorities are investigating the incident while a person fights for their life.
