Stray bullets
Clashes between police and heavily armed drug traffickers can erupt across Rio de Janeiro anytime and anywhere – even next to schools and churches. The result is an ever growing number of innocent people hit by stray bullets. This undeclared war is intensifying as the city, which hosted the Olympics last year, staggers under the effect of economic decline and corruption.
