This comes with a Hat Tip to Fox News.
The story comes from Globo.com and this is the quote via Google’s Machine translation:
Panic in a municipal school in Realengo, Western Zone of Rio de Janeiro. An armed man had stormed the school hall Tasso da Silveira and fired shots at students, faculty and staff. With the arrival of the first team of military police, there was an exchange of gunfire with police. Officers from the 14th Battalion and Samu ambulance are on site. The injured are being taken to the Hospital Albert Schweitzer. The shooter is dead. He was identified as Wellington Menezes de Oliveira, 24. He would be with a school ID card, and would be a former student.
There is video at the link and here too. It is all in Portuguese, which I do not speak. I did alert Fausta over at Fausta’s Blog about it; I don’t know if she speaks that language or not.
Either way, it is a sad situation down there; my prayers to the people in Rio.
