O motorista do Uber pegou três clientes e no meio do caminho esses três clientes eram três assaltantes que tentaram matar esse motorista, que era um policial aposentado. Esse policial reagiu ao assalto colocando a sua vida em risco e matou os três assaltantes.

Diz ela o seguinte: ‘Era bom que a sociedade parasse para pensar’, ‘tá aqui no Facebook dela: ‘Hoje temos três famílias chorando em razão desse PM opressor. Caso ele não tivesse reagido, apenas uma família choraria, assim o prejuízo seria menor para a sociedade’”
