Rio de Janeiro – A new video recorded by security cameras shows the moment that the motorcycle 

piloted by model Bruno Krupp runs over teenager João Gabriel Cardim Guimarães, 16 years old.

The accident happened on the edge of Barra da Tijuca, west of Rio, last Saturday (30/7). 

The teenager died.

The video was initially published by O Globo, but Metrópoles had access to the images. 

In them you can see João and his mother, Mariana Cardim de Lima, on 

Avenida Lúcio Costa towards the boardwalk, a few meters from the crosswalk.

They had just left a party and intended to put their feet in the sand before heading home. 

The video shows that João Gabriel tried to run to the boardwalk when he noticed 

the motorcycle at high speed, but was unable to cross, being hit squarely.

Due to the impact, the teenager's leg was amputated and thrown 50 meters ahead, between the lawn and the beach promenade.



The young man underwent surgery at the Lourenço Jorge Municipal Hospital, 

but could not resist his injuries and died. He was an only child and grandson 

and lived in Realengo, on the west side of Rio. The motorcycle piloted by Bruno was, 

according to witnesses, traveling at 150 km/h, on a road whose limit is 60 km/h.

In addition to being without a license, the model was stopped in a Prohibition 

blitz three days before the hit-and-run. Through his Stories on Instagram, 

the influencer mocked the situation and said he “loves Prohibition.



At the time, Krupp refused to blow his breathalyzer and received fines 

for riding the motorcycle without a license plate and license.



A new expertise, carried out this Thursday (4/8), was carried out with the aim 

of finding out what the speed of the motorcycle was at the time of the hit.

Model arrested in custody

On Wednesday morning (3/8), Bruno Krupp was arrested for the death of the teenager. 

Despite being released from Hospital Lourenço Jorge on Sunday, he was found in 

a private hospital in Méier, north of Rio. Bruno will remain in custody 

at the health unit until he is discharged.



The model will answer for homicide with eventual intent, when the risk of killing is assumed.
