A police officer in Brazil fell asleep at the wheel while intoxicated and hit two people on a motorcycle. The 28-year-old woman, identified as Lilliana da Silva Rodrigues, died in the accident.
Lilliana da Silva Rodrigues, 28, lost her life after being hit by a drunk police officer who fell asleep at the wheel. The accident occurred in Brazil on January 25. A friend of the victim, Richard dos Santos Souza, 29, was riding as a passenger on the motorcycle.
