A 50-year-old woman suffered injuries after being hit by a Municipal Guard vehicle in the Liberdade neighborhood of Resende, Brazil. The incident occurred on a Sunday night when the woman was riding her bicycle and allegedly ignored a traffic warning to stop. Witnesses indicate that the Municipal Guard officers attempted to stop her, but she continued riding her bike, leading to a collision with the vehicle.

Following the accident, the woman was taken to a local hospital where she underwent an examination, which revealed a right arm injury that required immobilization. The report from the Municipal Guard stated that they pursued the woman simply to advise her about the road closure but had to chase her down the Avenida Rita Maria da Rocha, resulting in the unfortunate accident. This investigation now highlights the tensions between law enforcement and civilians regarding compliance with traffic rules.

The case raises significant issues surrounding public safety, law enforcement procedures, and the responsibilities of both pedestrians and officers in urban environments. The local authorities will likely review this incident's circumstances to ensure the safety of both civilians and officers in similar situations in the future.
