One person died this Wednesday (16) after an accident caused by a man who, moments before, had stolen a bus. The case occurred in Nova Lima (MG), in the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte.

According to the police, the man – whose name was not released – stole the bus in Betim, also in Greater Belo Horizonte. He drove the bus along the BR-040 highway and ended up colliding with a van. On impact, the van hit a passenger car, killing the driver.
