A Tragic Accident on the CE-060 Highway Kills a Family of Three

The Cariri region is in mourning following a tragic accident that occurred early on Sunday, July 16. A whole family was killed in the collision that happened on the CE-060 highway between Caririaçu and Juazeiro do Norte.

They were traveling from Várzea Alegre to Juazeiro do Norte with Hérida Nascimento da Silva, Sebastião Cícero Gomes, and their 3-year-old son, Miguel Nascimento Gomes. The tragedy was made even more tragic by the fact that the trip was planned for little Miguel’s surgery.

Around 7 a.m., the family’s car lost control and crashed into a stream close to Sítio Piripiri, as reported by TV Verdes Mares and verified by the Ceará Military Fire Department.
