According to information found at the scene, young Lucas Pinheiro Fontenele was traveling along the highway when he ended up hitting an ox that was on the road. With the strong impact of the collision, Lucas suffered serious injuries and died at the scene, before help arrived.
The occurrence rekindles the alert for the constant risks on BR-364, especially in the stretch that crosses the Croa region, where the presence of loose animals is frequent. During the night and early morning, low visibility significantly increases the danger for drivers traveling on the highway.
The competent authorities were called to carry out the usual procedures, including isolating the area and removing the body, which was sent to the Legal Medical Institute (IML). The case will be investigated to determine the circumstances of the accident and possible responsibilities related to the presence of the animal on the track.
