Um grave acidente na BR-491, em Guaxupé, no Sul de Minas Gerais, matou três pessoas de uma mesma família nesta quinta-feira (19/2). As vítimas são Marcelo Donizete Martins, de 53 anos, Ângela Maria Tavares, de 46, e a filha do casal, Maria Cecília Tavares Martins, de 7.

O veículo, um HB20 conduzido por um idoso de 63 anos, trafegava na altura do km 511 da rodovia federal quando, segundo informações do Corpo de Bombeiros, o motorista perdeu o controle em uma curva e bateu frontalmente contra uma árvore.

O condutor foi atendido pela EPR Vias do Café, concessionária responsável pelo trecho. A criança chegou a ser resgatada com vida em estado grave e encaminhada à Santa Casa de Guaxupé, mas não resistiu aos ferimentos e teve o óbito confirmado na unidade de saúde. Os pais morreram no local.

A família residia em Guaxupé. Em nota, a Câmara Municipal manifestou pesar: "Toda a comunidade guaxupeana chora a perda prematura desta família tão querida. Que a força da fé e o apoio dos entes queridos tragam algum conforto aos corações enlutados. Rogamos para que o motorista sobrevivente tenha uma pronta recuperação física e emocional".

O veículo foi removido pela concessionária e o trânsito na rodovia foi liberado após cerca de duas horas e meia de retenção.
