According to the military police, the driver’s niece was killed. According to police, he had an amateur driver’s license and a marine vehicle registered with the Brazilian Navy.

In the official minutes, the Prime Minister also said that the driver refused to take a breathalyzer test and stated that he had drunk four bottles of beer before the accident.

The lifeguard told police that the suspect was inadvertently driving a jet ski at the scene.

However, according to police, the driver only reported that while performing the maneuver, he collided with his niece, who was filming the maneuvers.

The presented version, according to the police, was confirmed by the victim, who was under the supervision of doctors. She did not want to initiate a criminal case against her uncle.
