Confronto armado e acidente deixam um morto e oito feridos na Mangueira, Rio

A dramatic police pursuit in Rio de Janeiro’s Mangueira neighborhood resulted in a suspect’s death and injuries to eight bystanders. The incident occurred late Sunday night on Rua Visconde de Niterói, when police engaged in a shootout with armed suspects. The chase ended with the suspects’ vehicle crashing into multiple cars before falling onto the railway tracks.

The pursuit began as police officers patrolling near the Mangueira Samba School spotted armed individuals in a vehicle. Upon noticing the police, the suspects fired shots, prompting a return of fire from the officers. The ensuing chase saw the suspects’ car collide with at least five other vehicles before it ultimately landed on the tracks.

One suspect was shot and later succumbed to his injuries at Hospital Salgado Filho. Eight people present at the scene sustained injuries. The police have yet to confirm the number of suspects in the vehicle or whether any managed to escape or were apprehended. Items recovered from the scene included two iPhones, a watch, and a replica firearm.

The incident led to the temporary closure of the road until early Monday morning. The case remains under investigation as authorities continue to gather information and assess the situation.
