Due to the strong impact, the passenger died at the scene. The driver of the car only suffered bruises. After responding to the incident, the driver was subjected to a breathalyzer test, which showed 0.61 milligrams of alcohol per liter of expelled air, a value higher than the limit that constitutes a traffic crime. As a result, he was arrested red-handed by the Military Police.
Politec's criminal expert, Edson Gomes, explained that initial analyzes point to a very violent accident."Very violent collision. The street is straight, flat, with good visibility. The driver of the vehicle, probably at high speed due to the damage found at the scene, lost control of the vehicle and ended up crashing into the bus that was parked on the right."
Politec carried out forensic work at the scene and the victim's body was sent to the Legal Medical Institute (IML) for necropsy and official identification procedures. The driver of the car was taken to the police station.
This was the third fatal accident in Sinop in just over 24 hours. On Friday night, Jairo Oliveira Rodrigues, who was driving a motorcycle, died after colliding with a truck on BR-163. Yesterday, Pedro Henrique dos Santos Carrijo, aged 18, died in a collision involving a motorcycle and a truck.
