Four People Killed Brazil

SAO PAULO, Jul 12 (NNN-CMA) – At least four people were killed, including two minors, when suspects opened fire on a bar in the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo, local media reported yesterday.

Based on reports from the Sao Paulo Civil Police, the incident occurred minutes before midnight on Monday, in the Parque Paraiso neighbourhood of the Itapecerica da Serra district.

Two people were wounded in the shooting, which saw two suspects arrive on a motorcycle and fire multiple shots into the bar before fleeing.
