Masked men entered a bar in Brazil and shot dead patrons in cold blood, in one of 11 seemingly co-ordinated attacks on the outskirts of Sao Paulo overnight.
Eighteen people were killed and at least seven injured in a wave of overnight shootings. Brazilian media reported 11 attacks in total in the cities of Osasco e Barueri. A 19th death in Itapevi was originally included in the toll, but later said not to be related.
The victims are all men, aged between 16 and 41, out for a drink or with friends. Reports the victims had criminal records have not been confirmed.
