This is the moment a father attacked a driver who killed his motorcyclist son following an incident fueled by road rage in São Paulo, Brazil.
Video footage showed cops escorting Igor Sauceda, 27, at a police precinct Monday afternoon when the father of Pedro Figueiredo, 21, and another man lunged at him.
Alex Figueiredo and the other individual pummeled Sauceda, as a police officer got in between them before cops pulled him away and led him up a flight of stairs.
‘Taking someone’s life is easy, right’ Alex Figueiredo shouted.

Sauceda was questioned by investigators after he was captured driving a Porsche that read-ended a motorcycle that Figueiredo’s son Pedro Figueiredo was riding before he was killed
Pedro Figueiredo was riding his motorcycle in São Paulo, Brazil during the early hours Monday when he was run over by a Porsche driven by Igor Sauceda and later died at a hospital
Sauceda was behind the wheel of the yellow Porsche that was captured by a surveillance camera plowing into the motorcycle ridden by Pedro Figueiredo.
Sauceda’s vehicle hit a pole and a tree, which wrecked the right side of car. His girlfriend, Marielle Campos, was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
Pedro Figueiredo was rushed to an area hospital, where he died from the injuries he suffered in the accident.

Sauceda was later transferred to a police station and told investigators that he was on his way home from the bar he is a co-owner of when ‘unexpectedly a motorcyclist passed by on his left side and broke his side view mirror.’
He added that he decided to follow chase after Pedro Figueiredo because he was unable to pick up the motorcycle’s lights were off and couldn’t get his attention after repeatedly blowing the horn.
Sauceda said that Pedro Figueiredo was ‘in front of him and abruptly changed lanes’ and that he tried to avoid hitting rear-ending him by turning the steering wheel to the right, but still managed to make contact with the bike.
Pedro Figueiredo leaves behind a three-year-old daughter.
‘No father expects to bury his son,’ Alex Figueiredo said. ‘My son is everything to me. A boy who always worked, always helped me. He always pursued his little goals without harming anyone.’
