According to the information provided by the victim's wife to the Civil Police, the husband was in the Jardim América neighborhood and was drinking with other people at the bar. At that moment, he bet with another person that he would be able to drink a bottle of cachaça in just “one sip”.
According to Clóvis's wife, after consuming a bottle containing artisanal cachaça at once, the husband would have felt sick, but he decided to return home and sleep.
However, when waking up early the next morning, around 5:30 am, the woman noticed that Clovis had no vital signs.
In an attempt to save her husband's life, the Mobile Emergency Care Service (SAMU) was called to the site. However, there was no way to resuscitate the victim and Clóvis' relatives received confirmation of his death, which would have occurred in the early hours of March 23.
The information provided by SAMU states that there are no traces of physical violence on Clóvis' body. However, the body was sent to the Legal Medical Institute of the region for necropsy examination.
Meanwhile, the Civil Police are investigating the death of the 32-year-old man, who had a tragic outcome after the bet at Juara's bar.
Precautions when consuming alcohol
Drinking alcohol in large quantities can cause reactions in the body, such as dizziness, difficulty in spatial perception, mental confusion and even loss of consciousness.
These signs can be considered notorious of drunkenness and usually indicate that the person already has a high alcohol content in the body.
For this reason, it is important to drink alcoholic beverages in moderation to avoid the occurrence of drunkenness and possible negative consequences caused by high alcohol content in the blood.
