CBS/Reuters) A Brazilian court ordered the arrest of police officers who were filmed torturing and shooting a 14-year-old boy in August of last year.


The security camera video - released for the first time this week - showed four police officers firing a gun at the boy during a raid in a poor district of the Amazon city of Manaus.


The boy, who was shot five times in the chest area, was hospitalized and has recovered fully.


Three other policemen who do not appear in the footage were also arrested while the investigation is being carried out.


They claim to have fired against the boy in self-defense after they found a gun near him.


The seven officers will remain in prison until the end of the investigation. The boy and his family were included in a program that protects crime victims and witnesses.

Point blank is best, less chance of a miss.

They've been killing kids over there for decades. They have special "death squads" that patrol and shoot any homeless kids they find.

What Confuses Me is

If they shot this Kid in the chest at point blank rage ?

how come he Never fell Over ? & looked as Healthy at the end,
As he did While they were Threatening him ?
He looked more scared & Confused.

What was he treated for ?
Powder Burns ?

The 1st. shot looked to the Chest.

the second looked like it missed actually.


the 3rd. to his Head or face ?

& he just Winced

the one cop ran by looked like he was chasing & shooting
at the other Cop.

looked like they were Playing Cops & Robbers

HI, perhaps it is because of my video reception, but I could detect no sign of bleeding?? So were alternate types of munitions used ?

Yea I wonder if it was More Torture
then attempted Murder.

Torturing a 15 year old Dosn't make it right,
But Changes What they claim was done.

Jeff, I think you caught the most ovious points. The additional thing is that there is no blood on the wall or floor or the boy for that matter. After several shots in the chest at point blank range you are usually carried away, by the undertaker! Frank

My guess is rubber bullets, but that is still wrong in so many ways. That's a child that you could clearly see was scared to death.

Yea I'd almost like to stand in front of them Guys
with a gun & fire rounds off at them for awhile.
Maybe let them know there is one Live round involved.

It's Things Like that ,
that make it Hard to stay a Pacifist

I whole heartily agree Jeff, It's very sad that people do things like this.
