Police investigate prank at Castro College that ended in the death of 12-year-old Luigi

The Castro Civil Police are investigating the joke between friends that ended with the death of Luigi Gabriel da Cruz Sales, 12 years old. He was injured on September 25 at the Professor Basílio Chrum State College, was admitted and died during Saturday (3), at Hospital Universitário (HU-UEPG) in Ponta Grossa. He was buried on Monday (5).

During a play between students, Luigi ended up falling to the ground and suffered serious injuries. After receiving care, he was sent to the hospital.

Investigation

The group consisted of seven students, counting on Luigi, who were taking turns playing with each other. In Luigi's place, four students made the joke and two stood looking. The play, according to the information available, involved a child sitting while two other students held their arms, one on each side, to lift it. During the action, Luigi lost his balance and fell to the ground.

So far, the case has been treated as an accident. For the report of the BnT Portal, the delegate Marcondes Ribeiro reviewed more about the investigations of the case. “It is still a preliminary investigation. It is being determined whether there was an infraction committed by the adolescents or if the result of death was not foreseeable. People will be heard at the Castro Police Station. Among them are the victims’ families, school officials and military police,” the delegate said.

The delegate also pointed out that it was requested to send the medical records of the UPA of Castro and also the Hospital Universitário (HU-UEPG) of Ponta Grossa. "A necropsy was also requested to determine the cause of death. Reports and examinations have not yet been delivered to us. We're waiting. We're also checking for SAMU omissions by refusing to send an ambulance to school. Checking also if there was negligence of the school's servants in seeking medical attention. More concrete answers will only be possible after analysis of medical records, necropsy report, SAMU registration form and testimony of the parties," says Marcondes Ribeiro.

School suspends classes and offers welcome

On Monday (5), the State Secretariat for Education of Paraná (Seed-PR) exempted students from regular activities at the school. In place of the disciplinary classes, the institution provided reception and psychosocial support to the school community, in the face of the repercussions of the student's death.
