Brazil, Jane, a 52-year-old nurse, had recently ended their three-month relationship with Valdemir, 47. However he could not accept the break-up and when he was driving his Ford EcoSport he accelerated toward Jane but hit her parked car and overturned his own car.

After the crash, he climbed out of the overturned vehicle through a window and was taken to the Central hospital later on for medical observation. In statements regarding the incident, Valdemir denied that he intended to run over his ex-girlfriend.

The case is being handled by the Women's Defense Police Station in Praia Grande. Police officially registered the occurrence as suspected domestic violence and property damage.

Jane formally requested a judicial protective order against Valdemir following the attack. Local reports also note she had previously sought protective measures against him.
