A shocking video shared online captured the moment of a voluntary civilian rescue during the intense storms that affected the streets of Brazil in January 2026.
A homeless citizen acted decisively to pull out a motorist who could not get out of his Mercedes-Benz car, which had become stuck because of the current. The road incident was located specifically on Joaquim Murtinho Street in the Belo Horizonte area of Brazil.
According to information provided by the Itatiaia broadcaster, the main rescuer was identified by witnesses as a young man named Felipe, a homeless man, and he was the one who helped the victim get out through the car window before the water level rose further.
