A serious motorcycle accident resulted in the death of a 17-year-old teenager on Monday afternoon (19/08), on the BR-316 highway, heading out of the capital, in front of the main square in Marituba, in the Metropolitan Region of Belém (RMB). The fatal accident occurred around 4:00 p.m., when the young man hit the back of the van and ended up falling under a semi-trailer.
Traffic slowed down with a traffic jam of approximately six kilometers. The motorcyclist, who did not have a license, took the motorcycle without authorization from the person responsible. According to an investigation by the Military Police, witnesses who witnessed the accident and the van driver, the passenger van that was making an intercity trip to Igarapé-Açu was boarding passengers at the stop under a footbridge.
When the young man immediately hit the rear of the left side of the vehicle, the victim fell and was run over by a semi-trailer that was traveling in the adjacent lane. The van driver and the fare collector reported feeling the impact on the rear of the vehicle and then saw the semi-trailer speed past. When they went out to check, they found the young man lying lifeless on the ground.
There is no information as to whether the young man was wearing a helmet. The Military Police were called and managed to intercept the semi-trailer in Santa Izabel. The driver claimed not to have noticed the accident. He was taken to give a statement at the police station. "I believe he [the truck driver] didn't even notice, because since it was a B-train, the accident occurred in the last truck," said Corporal Loureiro, from the Military Police (PM).
One of the hypotheses raised is that the young man tried to overtake the van, or pass in the lane between the van and the truck. According to officer Miranda, from the Marituba Traffic and Transportation Department (Setran), the young man did not have a driver's license (CNH). The black Honda Titan motorcycle, license plate QZN 3B95, was rented for delivery service. The renter had stopped to rest when the motorcycle was taken by the young man, without his consent. Relatives and friends of the victim were also at the scene to monitor the work of the experts. Despite the tragedy, the victim still had his cell phone stolen by an unknown man.
The young man worked in a bakery in Marituba and would have turned 18 next month. Matheus Cristian, who was a friend of the victim, was with the young man last Sunday (18), at a beach resort with a group of people. “He was a very humble person. A jokester. Last Sunday, we were at a beach resort and he would send messages to everyone over the radio. He worked as a baker here in Marituba. His family was from Maranhão and came to live here with an uncle,” he said emotionally. Marituba resident Daniel Martins witnessed the accident. According to him, serious accidents in the area are not uncommon. “I thought it was someone crossing the street, but then I saw it was a motorcyclist.
These accidents are quite common in this area. That B-train has a blind spot and he ran over the motorcycle, he probably didn’t even notice,” the witness believes. Agents from the Traffic Department (Detran) and the Forensic Science Department were also in the area. Traffic on BR-316 was partially blocked during the operation. The accident will be investigated by the Marituba Police Station. The drivers of the van, the truck and the owner of the motorcycle were taken to the police station to give statements.
