Security cameras recorded the moment when pastor Leonardo Sale ran over a man after, according to him, suffering an attempted robbery. The case occurred last Wednesday (27) in Barra da Tijuca, west of Rio de Janeiro.
In the images you can see a man and a motorcycle approaching the car.

Then the pastor accelerates the car. One of the suspects managed to run away, while the other was under the car and was dragged a few meters. Some of the people around try to help the man, but soon after the motorcycle catches fire.
On his profile on a social network, pastor Leonardo Sale explained what happened. The religious leader stated that he was the victim of an attempted armed robbery and that after being threatened with a firearm, he ended up accelerating the car on the passenger side, running over the criminals.
“My heart is sad, even though justice is being served. I feel sad because I see so many young people losing themselves to trafficking and crime,” said the pastor.
