Actor Kayky Brito is hospitalized with polytrauma at the Miguel Couto Municipal Hospital after being run over early this Saturday (2), his sister, actress Sthefany Brito, said on social media. According to her, he is in the Intensive Care Center (ICU), with a stable condition, and should undergo further tests this afternoon.
Actor Dudu Azevedo was also in the hospital and, on his social networks, said that Kayky has “some fractures in his body and head trauma”.
“He is stabilized in the hospital being monitored by doctors. His response in the next few hours to what is being done is very important”, said Dudu Azevedo in a video posted on Instagram. “What remains for us is to hope that he recovers in the shortest possible time, that everything works out, that he recovers fully.”
Kayky Brito was run over in Barra da Tijuca, in the west zone of Rio de Janeiro. According to the Fire Department, the car was run over on Avenida Lucio Costa, at number 4700, at 01:08 am this Saturday.
The 34-year-old actor was taken to the Miguel Couto Municipal Hospital, in Leblon, in the south zone of the city. The hospital management informed the CNN that the state of health of the actor is considered serious.
The delegate of the 16th DP, Ângelo Lages, told the CNN that Kayky had “multibody trauma and head trauma”.
According to the police chief, Kayky was at Quiosque Dona Maria, at post 6, on Barra beach, with friends, including actor Bruno De Luca. He had gone to his car to get some belongings.
Kayky was run over by an app driver, in a Fiat Argo car, which was with a passenger with a baby and was coming from Recreio dos Bandeirantes to Barra da Tijuca.
The delegate stated that the driver even tried to divert to the right lane, but ended up hitting the actor who was returning to the kiosk.
Expertise was requested at the scene and the police are investigating whether the driver was traveling at a speed higher than the speed allowed on the stretch.
The case was registered in the 16th PD as culpable bodily injury, when there is no intention.
The State Secretariat of Military Police reported that police officers from the 31st BPM responded to the incident. “The driver was taken to the 16th DP and to the IML to carry out a blood alcohol test, which was negative for drinking alcohol,” the PM said in a note.
The Civil Police informed in a note to the CNN that “diligence is being carried out to clarify the facts”. Deputy Ângelo Lages said that images from the surrounding security cameras are being sought.
