A car ploughed into crowds strolling along a promenade on Rio de Janeiro’s famous Copacabana beach on Thursday, killing a one eight-month-old baby and injuring 15 others.
In what was an apparent accident, the car drove through a cycle path and promenade, crashing through tables and chairs of a cafe, before finally coming to a stop on the beach.
One eyewitness said there was “total confusion” at the scene. “All the chairs here went flying. The sand looked like smoke. We were running. They thought the car would set on fire."
Footage shows the badly damaged vehicle being towed away by police.
An investigation has been opened into the cause of the accident.
