SUZANO, Brazil - Two gunmen wearing face masks entered a Brazilian school on Wednesday and shot dead at least five teenagers as well as two school officials, before fatally turning their gun on themselves, police said.
It is not yet clear why the gunmen attacked the school, which is in a middle-class neighborhood and has about 1,000 children aged 11 to 16 attending classes. Marilene Gonçalves, a 51-year-old housewife, said she saw children fleeing the school, and that she gave safe harbor to several, including one boy who was shot in the jaw.
Another ten people, mostly schoolchildren, were shot and injured, with several in serious condition, said police.
