- Two people died, including Mauri, and several others were injured, with counts in official reports varying in the immediate aftermath.
- Maurício, Mauri’s brother and musical partner who was in the vehicle, is physically well and receiving assistance, according to the family’s statement.
- The PRF and the highway concessionaire opened an investigation, and early accounts of a possible medical episode involving the van’s driver remain unconfirmed.
