A security camera located on Ladeira do Bambuí, in São Caetano, recorded the moment when the truck backs down the lane and hits Anderson Conceição dos Santos, who was on the sidewalk. The image confirms the residents' version that he tried to hide behind the lamppost.

The equipment, however, did not withstand the impact of the crash and ended up crushing Anderson, who died instantly. The accident happened around 5:30 am, the time Anderson used to go buy bread.

Jairo Pinho Rosa, owner of the bakery, says that since the establishment started operating, Anderson would go early in the morning to buy bread. “Before opening the bakery, he would arrive there, around 5:20 am, several years ago. The car lost control, he saw it and left, but then he came back and then it was very close. Unfortunately, this fatality happened”, he lamented.
