Car attacks and fatal accidents dominate traffic headlines
Original: atropelamento
Australian authorities are treating the deliberate hit-and-run that injured a federal MP as a terrorism investigation; the politician lost a leg in the attack. In Brazil, traffic deaths are also in the news: a street cleaner and medical student was run over by a garbage truck, a driver was indicted for killing a dog in Cascavel, and the family of Guilherme Boulos mourns his uncle's death in a road dispute. A gospel site's unproven claim accusing a pro-Lula driver of a criminal hit-and-run was also flagged as unverified.
Why now: The deliberate attack on an Australian MP and several fatal pedestrian accidents in Brazil drew wide attention at the same time.
