According to ABC news.
A off-duty police officer waiting to pick up her children at their school in Brazil shot an intruder, who later died at the hospital, officials said.
I read it like a Nat Geo show " and here we have a newly appointed Brazilian police officer, chosen for her quick actions and faster thinking, she entered this encounter as a regular well armed pedestrian but the moment she pulled the trigger she was promoted to an "off duty police officer". Such an incredible moment to be captured on video"
Health and sanitation issues are endemic in Brazil. Hundreds of thousands suffer from gastro issues each year in Brazil due to poor sanitation. Over a hundred million residents in Brazil don't have adequate sanitation facilities. Brazil is definitely not some trash-free utopia.
Brazil is not America. Brazil is Brazil. It's located in a continent with "America" in the title, but "America" standing alone with no modifiers attached is a common linguistic shorthand for "United States of America" in the same way that "Brazil" is shorthand for "Federative Republic of Brazil."
We have actually 4 kinds of police forces on Brazil.
State military police - those are the cops you see everyday on the streets, who respond to 190 (our 911) calls, patrol the city and Frontline in defense of law & order. They follow a military regiment and have elite groups.
Civil police - those are divided in categories, but they're mostly detectives, investigators.
There are the federal police, our FBI.
And there are the municipal guards. They act mostly in protection of the town structure, but in some cities with low state military police, they do the hard work on crime combat 2.
On numbers, on 2020 we had, as far as I was able to find, 385.883 military police officers, 94.418 civil policie officers and 10.562 feds. I wasn't able to find a number of municipal guards, but ignoring them, considering numbers haven't changed much from 2020 to 2023, I'd say a total combined force of arround 500k cops on the country, for a population of 214,3 million people.
Because in south American and Central American countries they have many different types of police from volunteer to paid officer with little to no education to paid officers who are essentially lawyers. Volunteer officers taking up the majority of those seen and heard about. There's so many volunteer officers because to be frank the people are tired of the cartels bullshit and corrupt officials not doing anything about it so they join to help fight them.
If Brazil is anything like the USA, "death" only occurs when a licensed medical doctor formally makes that diagnosis. This is why you hear "later died" so often when reports of something horribly catastrophic happens to a person.
IIRC, a doctor can also make this diagnosis over a phone call if another medical professional can provide the doctor with vitals and observations.
Given the number of off-duty cops in Brazil, which roughly equals all adults minus on-duty cops, I have to wonder what makes these crooks think it's worth the risk of dying to do something like this in Brazil.
Yup. It's easy to say "don't do crime dummy" but if snatching a purse makes the difference between eating today or not, after a few skipped meals most people would be planning a purse snatching.
Doesn't make it right. It's just human nature when faced with starvation.
I don't know, but I've read that this sort of thing can happen because multiple gsws create pressure waves in the fluid of the body. This ruptures internal tissue and causes serious damage to the spinal cord a lot of the time. Not always permanent, and obviously irrelevant if you die...
No handgun besides a big bore revolver will create hydrostatic shock like that. It’s something that generally only occurs in rifle wounds. A handgun like the one she’s carrying will just poke holes in the person. She definitely hit something very vital with that first shot
So, I went to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_shock
And learned that while controversial (consistent with your comment), more recent and sophisticated research seems to support the damaging effect of pressure waves induced by handgun projectiles. Further damage may also be caused by vacuum injuries from the sudden void caused by the bullet.
True, but the vast majority of .45 caliber rounds are subsonic. It’s a big fat round that causes plenty of damage, but is too slow to generate destructive shockwaves in organs.
There are multiple possible causes of death from such gunshot wounds. First, circulatory arrest due to destruction of the heart or major blood vessels.
Internal bleeding is very dangerous and is caused by the bullet passing through his body, possibly hitting other vital organs or arteries / veins.
If we assume that only his intestines or the stomach were shot, then we can assume that he slowly bled to death.
Either way, shots in the stomach are very painful and cause an agonizing death (if you stay concious long enough)
Saw a video a few days ago of a guy getting shot with a pistol to the head and a few more times then a few seconds later with an assault rifle and he lived, it was almost point blank too.
The human body is a wild card. We've seen minor injuries and falls completely kill or paralyze a person for life. Then people can get shot 5-10+ times and still survive. People can take rifle rounds to the skull and recover whereas a .22 to the temple can still be lethal for suicide.
It really depends on what gets cut and severed. I'm no doctor but the older I get the less I feel capable of judging severity of injuries because everyone handles them so drastically different.
This is in my town! Suzano, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Happened few years ago.
The police officer is named Katia Sastre. This incident was few weeks before election, she ran for congress and won. Sadly last election she wasn't elected again.
School is only one block behind the city mall.
This incident is our second most famous. First one was a school shooting now considered the worst ever in our country's history.
It was later found the dead criminal had been involved in the robbery and burning of an elderly.
I've bumped into her once. Her office is in the same building where my fathers doctor is.
Yeah fr she was in straight fight or flight though sadly that’s how people die all the time.
Police get tunnel vision, either get themselves or their team killed by missing something important’s going on out of sight, or hitting people in crossfire.
Sadly, there’s tons of times this has happened, Civilian’s also do it often too, I’m sure you heard of children dying from stray bullets, I remember one where a kid was playing Xbox at home in my city and a stray bullet went right through his room and hit him right in the head killing him instantly.
I think the mom kinda expected the kid to run instinctively, but she almost immediately turned around and got her once she saw that her kid hadn't noticed the gun yet.
Yep, whole video she kicks the gun away and then kicks him over onto his stomach, leg stays stuck that way the whole time, so some sort of nerve damage for sure.
Perfectly good example of why you need hollow point bullets that do not over-penetrate. At such a close range, if it had been a full metal jacket, it probably would have passed straight through the guy and hit the little girl right behind him.
do you really think the sentiment is supposed to be "they'll stop because we asked nicely :)"? like seriously do you believe that's actually what people think?
the idea is that 1) it would be harder to get one, and 2) they could be prosecuted for illegal possession *before* using it to shoot someone.
Love to see a nice notch under the W column for the good guys!
This douche bag deserves everything he came looking for. Shouldn’t be on this earth if you create a sense fear and danger in innocent lives
This was 2A advocates hope happens every time someone with a gun meets another person with a gun. Unfortunately it usually does not. More lives lost than required. Maybe everyone in the USA needs be an off during cop?
While I don’t necessarily agree it was a great angle to shoot him because of the woman and girl behind him, I will admit that it was incredibly smart of her to get that gun right up near him, guaranteeing a hit and minimizing possible collateral, and it looks like in the lungs too, so he ain’t gonna be running that one off.

[удалено]
Or that it was an off duty cop in Brazil.
In Brazil, every law abiding citizen is officially promoted to cop once they cap their first bad guy, therefore making them off duty at the time.
Lol. I read that as the narrator in a comedy movie.
I read it like a Nat Geo show " and here we have a newly appointed Brazilian police officer, chosen for her quick actions and faster thinking, she entered this encounter as a regular well armed pedestrian but the moment she pulled the trigger she was promoted to an "off duty police officer". Such an incredible moment to be captured on video"
Cant tell if /s xD
Honestly sounds like a brazil thing
I'm American but I'm trying to move to Brazil and they already told me I'm an off duty cop.
Mom: "Sweetie, what do you want to be when you grow up? A firefighter? An astronaut?" Kid: "An Off duty cop!"
“Sweetie, we have vigilantes at home.”
Or that the perp later died
It seems like everyone in Brazil is an off-duty cop
[удалено]
Did not expect the comment to finish in that way.
That took a turn didn't it.
Wait I’m from Southern Brazil… I guess I’m a passive one then lol
If I learnt something from the internet is that, in Brazil everyone is either a criminal or an off duty police officer.
Or a femboy
I think in Brazil if you want to carry a gun you have to get “deputized” or whatever. So anyone with a “carry permit” is a never-on-duty cop.
Coulda been the US too... Then I saw how little trash there was in the streets and realized it couldn't be anywhere in the states.
You might live in the wrong place.
Health and sanitation issues are endemic in Brazil. Hundreds of thousands suffer from gastro issues each year in Brazil due to poor sanitation. Over a hundred million residents in Brazil don't have adequate sanitation facilities. Brazil is definitely not some trash-free utopia.
Yeah but it makes some feel good to trash (no pun) their own country.
Tell me you’ve never been out of the United States without telling me
This has nothing to do with America, not everything only matters in its's relation to America jesus christ
Brazil is America. Just like the United States.
Brazil is not America. Brazil is Brazil. It's located in a continent with "America" in the title, but "America" standing alone with no modifiers attached is a common linguistic shorthand for "United States of America" in the same way that "Brazil" is shorthand for "Federative Republic of Brazil."
I sense you may have a negative view of the United States.
Well she doing a right thing to protect other mothers.
How many Cops are there in Brazil? Every citizen seems to be an off-duty police officer.
Badges? We don’t need no stinking badges!
Show me your badge !

Yeah bullshit he died at the hospital. My man is room temp by the time the paramedics got there.
Shoe off confirms.

This is why you hear "later died" so often when reports of something horribly catastrophic happens to a person. IIRC, a doctor can also make this diagnosis over a phone call if another medical professional can provide the doctor with vitals and observations.
Always look at the boots. They tell the truth. If in video someone loses boots == he ded.
Good! I’m glad he’s dead and deserves to rot in Hell!
Read the first few words and thought "Brazil". I would have made that assumption sooner had he wore his motorcycle helmet.
Saved the handbag though
May he rest in piss
Okay at this point I genuinely need to know the proportion of off duty cops in Brazil to civilians, it has to be like 50/50 at this point
Makes sense. That was way to smooth
Given the number of off-duty cops in Brazil, which roughly equals all adults minus on-duty cops, I have to wonder what makes these crooks think it's worth the risk of dying to do something like this in Brazil.
“Roughly equals all adults minus on-duty cops” 😂
I never saw a video of an on duty cop in Brazil
[there you go](https://youtu.be/5WONZLY4VyI)
Extreme poverty

If I'm starving I shoplift some food, I don't pull a gun on women and children.
Did that hit his spine or something?, he legs just stop working after he gets shot. Yeh I know he died, but play stupid games.

Well that’s fascinating, thanks for the update!
Thanks for the motivation to look it up!
Did you guys just become best friends? Wholesome.
I love a good meetcute
I'm still thinking about vacuum injuries. I had never heard of that.
Looks like she shot him in the heart
Yeah my guess would be through the heart and into the spine with the sudden stiffness in his whole lower body. Great shot
“Great shot man”
[удалено]
Wish I could've met you... Now it's a little late 😂
Looks like she might be packin a 45 from the size of it. That’ll definitely do some rupturing from that distance.
True, but the vast majority of .45 caliber rounds are subsonic. It’s a big fat round that causes plenty of damage, but is too slow to generate destructive shockwaves in organs.
That bullet hit evvvvvvverything
i think the fall dislocated his joint
His legs stay tensed out so prob not paralysed. Prob tensing due to the intense pain, try it at home if you’re curious
I think she also hit his leg which probably ruptured the quad sending it straight into extension
Going from "I'll kill you" to "please don't shoot" in the space of "pow-pow."
like the other recent video, goes from you'll have to kill me to please baby girl I dont want to die real quick
He is probably dead. Three gunshots at 1meter range to the chest. Not a chance.
Died in hospital.
So what that means is the did CPR until they made it to the hospital
Where someone could legally pronounce him as dead.
There are multiple possible causes of death from such gunshot wounds. First, circulatory arrest due to destruction of the heart or major blood vessels. Internal bleeding is very dangerous and is caused by the bullet passing through his body, possibly hitting other vital organs or arteries / veins. If we assume that only his intestines or the stomach were shot, then we can assume that he slowly bled to death. Either way, shots in the stomach are very painful and cause an agonizing death (if you stay concious long enough)
Absolutely. My comment should have been the EMTs kept him alive until they made it to the hospital.
Slowly most likely too, body shots that don’t hit your heart tend to be slow and painful
Saw a video a few days ago of a guy getting shot with a pistol to the head and a few more times then a few seconds later with an assault rifle and he lived, it was almost point blank too.
Is that the store clerk? Because only one bullet grazed his head and the rest missed.
Son of a gun.
The human body is a wild card. We've seen minor injuries and falls completely kill or paralyze a person for life. Then people can get shot 5-10+ times and still survive. People can take rifle rounds to the skull and recover whereas a .22 to the temple can still be lethal for suicide. It really depends on what gets cut and severed. I'm no doctor but the older I get the less I feel capable of judging severity of injuries because everyone handles them so drastically different.
It's arguably easier to survive a headshot than a chest shot
True, thing is you'll be probably be only eating soups with a straw for a looong time
This is in my town! Suzano, Sao Paulo, Brazil. Happened few years ago. The police officer is named Katia Sastre. This incident was few weeks before election, she ran for congress and won.

I've bumped into her once. Her office is in the same building where my fathers doctor is.
That's cool! How was she as a politician?
Didn't watch her career very closely, but she was a supporter of right wing fascist moth4fuck4 Bolsonaro. Didn't vote for her, then
Welp
Burning of an elderly what?
Wow that lady and kid were almost directly in the line of fire. Had that one lady not pulled that kid she woulda just stayed there the whole time
That cop needed to adjust the angle. That was very irresponsible.
I figured that’s why she got so close. She damn near touched him with the barrel before she fired.
Yeah fr she was in straight fight or flight though sadly that’s how people die all the time. Police get tunnel vision, either get themselves or their team killed by missing something important’s going on out of sight, or hitting people in crossfire. Sadly, there’s tons of times this has happened, Civilian’s also do it often too, I’m sure you heard of children dying from stray bullets, I remember one where a kid was playing Xbox at home in my city and a stray bullet went right through his room and hit him right in the head killing him instantly.
I noticed that. Close one .
What does 'hitting an easy lick' mean?
"lick" just means "robbery" here
Hitting a lick is robbing someone, usually at gunpoint. The easy part prolly cause it was women and children.
Dumb-guy speak for robbery
Alright I’ll bend over this time but next time it’s your turn okay?
Supposed to mean robing a liquor store...
he found out
He fucked around in the wrong kindergarten
[удалено]
He actually died in the hospital
even better.
[удалено]
The one mom literally almost left her daughter…
I think the mom kinda expected the kid to run instinctively, but she almost immediately turned around and got her once she saw that her kid hadn't noticed the gun yet.
It boggles my mind that robbers always look so surprised to get shot when they do
Did one of the shots hit his spine or something? Does that explain the hyperextended leg?
Yep, whole video she kicks the gun away and then kicks him over onto his stomach, leg stays stuck that way the whole time, so some sort of nerve damage for sure.
Well at least he didn't have to live with it for long
Lost his shoe. Dead.
Woman is a badass
That's why I say hey man nice shot...
What a good shot man …
Seems like she has some sort of training, she was unusually calm, and knew exactly what to do, that calm only comes with experience/training.
She a badass saved them kids
In a comment above it is mentioned that she is an off-duty police officer
Damn, she's perfect at her job.
"It's just a prank bro"
The moment you brandish a firearm in front of innocent children you deserve a chest full of lead.
Perfectly good example of why you need hollow point bullets that do not over-penetrate. At such a close range, if it had been a full metal jacket, it probably would have passed straight through the guy and hit the little girl right behind him.
Gotta love some instant karma
Cringe ass music
Any docs on here know why his leg went rigid?
Probably the bullet reached the spine and caused nerve damage
How do psychos like these ~~able~~ allowed to get a gun?
He probably isn't allowed to. Typically criminals don't get guns legally.
Allowed? Criminals dont care what you "allow" them to do. Anti gun people dont seem to understand that.
do you really think the sentiment is supposed to be "they'll stop because we asked nicely :)"? like seriously do you believe that's actually what people think? the idea is that 1) it would be harder to get one, and 2) they could be prosecuted for illegal possession *before* using it to shoot someone.
In the US you need to pass a federal background check to buy a gun.
Wish I could upvote this twice.
to paraphrase Mike Tyson, 'everybody gotta plan until they get shot in the chest'
He died
Live by the sword
What stops a bad guy with a gun? Yup, that's right, a good guy with a gun
Man plans, and the gods laugh.
Why are the cops always off duty? And why is it ALWAYS in Brazil? 💀
Wtf is that title op?
This is how it is when playing dark souls for the first time.
Good for her this is a prime example why people should be armed and trained.
Love to see a nice notch under the W column for the good guys! This douche bag deserves everything he came looking for. Shouldn’t be on this earth if you create a sense fear and danger in innocent lives
Of course, this was Brazil. Of course she was an off-duty officer. Everybody is an off duty officer in Brazil.
She went directly for the heart, brutal.
I’m BLEEEEDING! Lol.
Homeboy lost his coolness real quick
Lol. This is great
Thspinal. \-Mike Tyson
Reddit hates her for having a gun legally
Did she hit his spine? Why is his leg like that?
Shoes came off. That’s how you know he dead.
Dude found out his chest is allergic to bullets.
"hit a lick" OP is a time traveler
This wouldnt have happened if the gun had a gun to shoot the gunner
Good job 👍
To hit an easy lick? What?
I want to buy her a drink
Good ol' unlucky 13 strikes again
Half of Brazil is just employed as "off duty cops"
Ded
Bends his leg bad when he falls off the curb too 😭
guns saves life.
And take lives.
This was 2A advocates hope happens every time someone with a gun meets another person with a gun. Unfortunately it usually does not. More lives lost than required. Maybe everyone in the USA needs be an off during cop?
I love this one. Watching it over and over.
That did appear to be.... OK, I'm dead... posturing
Brazilian undercover cops have no chill
Gunman after he realized he met his maker 
"Ahhhh! She shot me! I can't believe she shot me!!"
She did a great job peeling him off at the right angle. Cleared the area behind him for the bullet to pass through. 10/10
"Exit stage left....Woops, forgot my kid..."
While I don’t necessarily agree it was a great angle to shoot him because of the woman and girl behind him, I will admit that it was incredibly smart of her to get that gun right up near him, guaranteeing a hit and minimizing possible collateral, and it looks like in the lungs too, so he ain’t gonna be running that one off.
What is going on with his stiff leg deal!?!?
Very rare win by good gal with a gun.
That look of feeling the pain lol. One less dummy out there.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes!
😂 Good for her
Cool
NO, you are not taking my daughter's wrapping paper fund raiser money. - Karen with a gun
Aimed straight for the heart too. This lady was not playing around!
I’ve seen so many of these videos that I immediately know it’s Brazil.
I hate seeing these, I wish they had a death or murder flag or something. Nsfw is too vague.
He was marked by number 13 on his shirt.
Looks like he went flamingo in one leg
Turned him into Gumby
Wow, she really shot him without warning, probably had no remorse too. Kinda crappy to even show this honestly though, the look of pain on his face.
Point blank to the chest make the legs go to rest..
Civilian gun ownership is the best.
