Brazil teenager who gunned down three teachers and a student used a military semi-automatic weapon and wore a swastika pinned on his vest, police say
School attacks are uncommon in Brazil, but have happened with somewhat greater frequency in recent years.
Espirito Santo Governor Renato Casagrande said on Saturday the semiautomatic weapon belonged to the military police, while the revolver was a personal weapon registered in the name of the former student’s father, a military police officer. Authorities say the teenager used his family’s car to go from one school to the other, and had the license plate hidden by a cloth.
