Man, 26, and Woman, 42, Die After a Car They Were Believed to Be Having Sex in Fell Hundreds of Feet Off a Cliff
The pair were parked at a scenic overlook when the vehicle plummetedNEED TO KNOW A man and a woman died after the car they were reportedly having sex in fell off a cliff Investigators suspect the vehicle's movements prompted it to teeter over the edge and fall The victims have since been identified as 26-year-old Marcone da Silva Cardoso and 42-year-old Adriana Machado RibeiroA man and a woman are dead after a car they were believed to be having sex in fell off a cliff. The pair — who have since been identified as 26-year-old Marcone da Silva Cardoso and 42-year-old Adriana Machado Ribeiro — were in Venda Nova do Imigrante in Brazil on Monday, Aug. 4, when they parked near a scenic overlook. Apparent movement from an intimate moment in their vehicle caused it to drop hundreds of feet, CNN Brazil and the Sun reported, citing local authorities. Cardoso and Ribeiro headed toward the area, where the ground was wet, after leaving a party, official Alberto Roque Peres told CNN Brazil, adding that the car fell down a hang-gliding ramp. The vehicle was located later that morning by a local caretaker, Military Police told CNN Brazil. The man and woman were found naked. Citing local media, The Sun reported that police believe the vehicle fell around 1 a.m. local time, and the man and woman were thrown roughly 328 feet. The pair's bodies were found at the base of a rock, while vehicle parts were scattered in the nearby vegetation, CNN Brazil reported. 'There were no signs of violence at the scene or on the bodies, and the car's handbrake was engaged," Peres said, according to The Sun, which added that investigators suspect the car's movements prompted it to teeter over the edge and fall. 'Residents reported hearing a loud noise between 1:30 a.m. and 2 a.m., but because it was dark and the vegetation was thick, no one saw anything at the time," Peres explained. The case remains under investigation, and authorities, who are awaiting forensic reports, told CNN Brazil that there is no initial evidence to suggest others were involved. Photos shared by CNN Brazil and the New York Post show the vehicle destroyed after it plunged several hundred feet off the cliff. 'I saw the car's engine very far away and the car fell, [almost 450 feet] from the accident,' witness Tiago Amorim said, per the Post. 'It was a shocking scene, the car was destroyed.' Ribeiro was a mother of two, while Cardoso was also a parent of a 4-year-old son, according to CNN Brazil. Read the original article on People

A Colombian senator shot in June falls back into critical condition after hemorrhaging
BOGOTÁ, Colombia (AP) — Colombian Sen. Miguel Uribe Turbay, who was shot in June during a campaign rally in Bogotá and remains hospitalized, experienced a hemorrhage in his nervous system and is once again in critical condition, authorities said Saturday. The Fundación Santa Fe clinic that is treating him said in a statement that Uribe Turbay required 'urgent neurosurgical procedures' to stabilize him, adding that he was placed under deep sedation to aid his recovery. Uribe Turbay was shot three times, twice in the head, while giving a campaign speech in a park on June 7. Since then, he has remained in an intensive care unit in serious condition with episodes of slight improvement. Two months after the attack, his wife, María Claudia Tarazona, posted the following message on Instagram: 'My sweet love, I miss you so much that it tears my soul apart. Come back to me, God willing.' Six people have been prosecuted for the attack, while a minor collaborating in the investigation escaped from a detention center. Among those arrested is Cristian Camilo González Ardilla, alias 'El Costeño,' whom authorities believe was the planner and organizer of the attack and considered key to help investigators track down its masterminds.
