The house where João Pedro Matos Pinto, 14, played with his cousins before being killed during a police operation on Monday afternoon (18) today has about 70 marks of gunshots.
The holes appear on several walls, a window, and the television in the property's living room. The property belongs to the teenager's aunt and family reunited there on weekends and during the quarantine.
"There are 71 marks of shots, which I counted myself," said Jack Silva, president of the neighborhood association. "It was a lot of shooting. And there was also a piece of grenade or gas bomb they threw."
