Arthur, who lived in Demerval Lobão with his parent and 12-year-old brother, was in the area for health checkups, G1 reported. He was staying with his grandmother, who lived next to the shop where the incident occurred.
While the company issued a statement, Arthur’s mother, who saw her son being electrocuted, doesn’t believe they’ve done enough. She called the company but didn’t get a response. The day after Arthur’s death, they were open and operating as usual. “They didn’t help my baby and they’re still working normally, selling gas. I want justice for my son, his brother is in tears,” his mother said.
