In an eerie similarity to the movie “Bus 174”, an armed man hijacked a bus in Rio de Janeiro on Friday. The man held police at bay for nearly 11 hours and hijacked the bus since he was angry at his ex-wife (who was a passenger on the bus) for ending their relationship was supposedly cheating on him. Unlike “Bus 174” [SPOILER ALERT] the incident on Friday ended peacefully as police and clergymen successfully convinced the gunman into giving up without harming anyone onboard the bus.
