The hijacker, identified as a member of Brazil's Military Police, was armed and threatened to set the bus on fire.
According to the Brazilian News Agency, he took the vehicle hostage on a bridge about five miles [1.5 km] long linking Rio's city with Niteró's.
The hostage situation is over. The hijacker was neutralised by a sniper from the elite team and hostages have been released”, said in a communique for Military Police Media.
“Record TV”, CNN's partner in Brazil, reported that before execution, the kidnapper had released six people.
The event blocked the bridge for four hours, but there were also those who were not upset but who left the car and started playing soccer.
