Quick Summary#

Kamila Giovanna Ferreira, 26, died on January 8, 2026, following a serious traffic accident in Anápolis, Goiás. The crash occurred on December 26, when her motorcycle collided with a car. She was admitted to the Hospital Estadual de Anápolis Dr. Henrique Santillo (Heana) in critical condition and remained intubated for eight days before her death.

The hospital confirmed her passing and expressed condolences to her family and friends. The driver of the car involved in the accident has not been identified by police, and a formal investigation has been launched. According to the police delegate, Manoel Vanderic, the driver was not arrested at the scene because he was not intoxicated. Authorities plan to hear testimony from the driver and witnesses and use accident footage to complete a forensic simulation. This will allow for the finalization of the police report and formal indictment.

Hospital Confirms Death Following Critical Condition#

The Hospital Estadual de Anápolis Dr. Henrique Santillo (Heana) confirmed the death of Kamila Giovanna Ferreira on Thursday, January 8. The 26-year-old had been hospitalized since December 26 after suffering severe injuries in a traffic collision. Medical staff reported that the patient remained intubated and in grave condition throughout her eight-day stay at the facility.

Officials from the hospital released a statement expressing deep regret over the loss of life. They extended their solidarity and condolences to the young woman's family and friends during this difficult time. The medical team did not provide further details regarding specific injuries sustained in the crash, focusing instead on the critical nature of her admission status.

"The author was not arrested due to legal requirements; he was not intoxicated."
— Manoel Vanderic, Police Delegate

Details of the Traffic Collision#

According to information provided by the hospital, the fatal incident involved a motorcycle driven by Kamila Giovanna Ferreira and a car. The collision took place in Anápolis, located in the central region of the state of Goiás. The specific location of the crash and the exact circumstances leading to the impact have not been fully detailed in preliminary reports.

The driver of the car involved in the accident has not yet been identified by law enforcement. As a result, authorities have been unable to locate the driver's defense team or contact the individual for questioning. The lack of identification has complicated the initial stages of the investigation, delaying the collection of immediate statements from the other party involved in the crash.

Police Investigation and Legal Proceedings#

Delegate Manoel Vanderic addressed the media regarding the status of the investigation. He explained that an inquiry has been formally established to look into the accident. Because Kamila Giovanna Ferreira did not die at the scene of the crash, a standard on-site forensic examination was not conducted. Instead, police are relying on an indirect investigation to reconstruct the events.

Vanderic stated that the driver of the car was not arrested immediately following the incident. The decision was based on legal requirements, specifically the absence of intoxication at the time of the crash. "The author was not arrested due to legal requirements; he was not intoxicated," Vanderic said. The investigation is currently proceeding with the following steps:

  1. Listening to the driver of the car.
  2. Interviewing other witnesses present at the scene.
  3. Reviewing available images from the day of the accident.
  4. Conducting a simulation to finalize the forensic report.

Once these steps are completed, the police will proceed with the formalization of the indiciamento (formal accusation). This process will allow authorities to present their findings and move forward with any necessary legal actions against the driver.
