One person died and two others were injured after a gun attack at a school in Sapopemba, in the eastern zone of São Paulo, Brazil on Monday morning, local media reported and the regional government confirmed.
According to information from the Military Police, the event occurred around 7H30 local time (10H30 GMT), when police and firefighters were called to attend the situation at the school.
As a result of the shooting, three students were shot and were taken to Sapopemba State Hospital for treatment. One of them succumbed to his injuries and died. The fourth victim sustained hand injuries during the race.
The Minister of Justice, Flávio Dino, posted on the networks what happened and said he will assist the São Paulo police. “Solidarity with the victims, their families and the community of the São Paulo state school, target of a gun attack. The Cybercrime Laboratory of the Ministry of Justice was activated to assist the São Paulo Police in deepening the investigations.”
In a statement, the government of São Paulo said it will provide psychological support to the students and that the priority is to assist the victims.
The governor of São Paulo, Tarcísio de Freitas , sympathized with the families of the victims of the attack on his social networks.
“We are appalled by another terrible attack on our schools. At this moment, the priority is to support students, teachers and families. All my solidarity with the families and all those affected in this sad episode” wrote the governor.
So far in 2023, eight attacks on Brazilian schools have been recorded, corresponding to a third of the total number of cases registered in the country since 2002, according to a recent report by the Brazilian Public Security Forum.
The previous attack was recorded last June at a school in the southern state of Paraná, where a teenage couple died, and the perpetrator of the attack was found dead two days later, apparently after committing suicide.
