SUZANO, Brazil: Stunned family members on Thursday prepared to bury the eight victims of a school shooting in Brazil, along with the two attackers who carried out the violence, and grappled to understand why the bloodshed took place.
The rampage has raised tough questions about just how to deal with a wave of violence that helped pave the way for the election of far-right President Jair Bolsonaro.AdvertisementThe students who died were boys, mostly between 15 and 16-years-old. The assailants were aged 17 and 25, and carried out the attack with one .38 caliber pistol, a crossbow, as well as with hatchets and knives.
Before entering the Raul Brasil school in Suzano near Sao Paulo, the two former pupils shot and killed the younger assailant's uncle, who owned a car rental agency where they stole a vehicle.
