The Aracruz school shootings were a shooting spree that occurred on November 25, 2022, at two schools in Aracruz, Espírito Santo, Brazil. Four people were killed, and 12 others were injured. The suspect, a 16-year-old former student at one of the schools, was arrested approximately four hours later.[1][2][3]

Shootings

The shootings began at around 9:30 a.m. and occurred at two schools located on the same street.[1][4] The gunman, who wore camouflaged clothing, an armband with a swastika, a skull mask, and a hood, broke into the Primo Bitti Elementary and Middle School, a public school serving elementary and middle school students, after destroying a lock. There, he shot 11 people, killing two teachers. A third teacher died a day later.[1][3][5]

Afterwards, the gunman drove to the Educational Center Praia de Coqueiral, a private school.[1][3] Entering at 9:49 a.m. through the unlocked gates,[4] he shot an additional three people, killing a female 6th-grade student.[3] The gunman fled again a minute later[4] and remained at large for approximately 4 hours. Later, the Military Police released a statement confirming that a suspect was in custody.[1][6]
