Warning: This post contains a video of a man being shot which some may find disturbing.In yet another disturbing motorcycling incident caught on video, a man in Sao Paulo, Brazil had his motorcycle hijacked at gunpoint while stopped at a stoplight. The video of the incident, uploaded to YouTube by user Anderson Mangai, is filmed with a helmet-mounted camera, worn by some motorcyclists “as a means of insurance, capturing interactions on the road from the driver’s point of view.”The video begins with the driver navigating the streets and then, when stopped, a man shoves a gun into his face and demands he get off his bike. The driver gives up motorcycle and the thief takes it from the ground, only to be shot twice by a police officer on the other side of the street. The whole scene is quick and surprising; those mingling around and driving by post-shooting seem to be displaying a relatively disturbing blasé attitude.Reddit users have gone to great lengths to describe and translate the video.

User imortality has provided a transcript of the entire scene, including the interaction between the driver and the attempted thief after he was shot:Victim: Now you're gonna rob in hell you son of a bitch.Robber (whining): I got shot!Victim (pissed off): You go fuck yourself! You're the one pointing gun at other people's face!Robber: Oh, I'm gonna die.Victim: You sure will! You should have already! Son of a bitch.Robber inaudible, apparently asks someone to get him something to drink.Victim: You're gonna drink in hell! You're gonna drink the devil!The popular assumption online is that the thief will be fine and many are hailing the cop as a hero, saying the thief got exactly what he deserved. Others commenters just seem to chalk it up to another day in Brazil. Here is the video:[h/t and screenshot via LiveLeak]São Paulo military police have arrested an officer who was caught on camera this week firing at two teenage suspects who had fallen to the ground from a stolen motorcycle following a dangerous pursuit through the streets of Brazil's biggest city.

It was meant to be a week when police in São Paulo State celebrated new figures that showed the lowest number of homicides on record, but the shocking end to a police chase in the south of São Paulo city — caught live from TV helicopters — quickly put paid to that.Footage from the chase, which was broadcast live on the channels TV Bandeirantes and Record, shows a military police officer firing at and wounding the two teenagers, aged 16 and 17, at near-point-blank range after the pursuit ends abruptly.As the chase weaved through traffic, the video shows the 16-year-old passenger throwing his helmet at the officer, who responds by shooting at the pair, causing the motorbike to crash and the men to fall to the ground. Another shot is fired as the officer approaches, and then at least two more flashes of gunfire are seen after the officer comes within touching distance of the pair.Police officials said that the two men had ignored officers' commands to stop after they were found on a stolen motorcycle, sparking the pursuit.

A police investigation will now assess whether this was an excessive use of force, which will involve a close evaluation of the footage that was broadcast on television.It is unclear whether either of the two men, one of whom was taken to a hospital with serious injuries, had fired at police.This will form part of the investigation, but the mother of the 16-year-old who was traveling on the back of the motorcycle the Brazilian news portal G1 that it was "clear" that her son had not exchanged fire with the police office."motorcycles for sale branson moWe're going to investigate the case," Alexandre de Moraes, the São Paulo state secretary for public security, said in remarks quoted by the Folha de S. Paulo newspaper. motorbike for sale phuket thailand

"But from the images we can also see serious irregularities. Even if the criminals had fired, they were on the ground when police fired those two rounds."Ivan Marques, director at Sou Da Paz, a São Paulo-based anti-violence non-governmental organization, said that the investigation must focus on why training had not been followed."While we applaud the authorities for swiftly detaining and removing the officer in question from duty, the big question is why he apparently failed to implement a key part of his training regarding the preservation of life," he said. bell motorcycle helmet warranty"Police are responsible for the lives of everyone around them — criminal or not.""motorcycle rental honolulu airportFiring at someone who has thrown a helmet at you does not fall under these guidelines," Marques added.cheap motorcycles for sale in kzn

The shocking episode came as it was reported that overall homicides across São Paulo state — Brazil's most populous — fell to their lowest level on record for the month of May. According to official figures, which count incidents rather than the number of people murdered, there were 292 cases in May 2015, down from 1,101 in May 2001, when records were first published.But the number of deaths caused by military police in São Paulo state surged to a 12-year high in the first quarter of 2015, with the state recording 185 killings. customized motorcycle jackets philippinesFour officers were killed in the line of duty during the same period.cheap motorcycles for sale in kznOverall in 2014, on-duty military police killed over 700 people in São Paulo state.Security officials, commenting on the first-quarter figures, said that police officers "act strictly within the limits of the law," and that "unlawful deaths are investigated rigorously and end with the officers charged with the crime being punished."

But studies in other regions have shown that more than 99 percent of cases are thrown out by military police prosecutors — and specialists say that São Paulo is no different."If you so regularly absolve police officers of crimes, even when they were clearly in the wrong, it generates a sense of impunity and encourages the use of indiscriminate force, even revenge attacks," Marques said. "Every time an officer pulls a trigger, they must be held accountable for their actions and in complete transparency."Police argue that the increase in killings in their operations is a response to more aggressive and heavily armed criminals.In the five years between 2009 and 2013, police across Brazil killed 11,197 people, or six people every day, a study by the Brazilian Forum of Public Safety found.It compared the war zone-like figures to the United States, where police officers had killed the same number over a timespan of some 30 years. The study also revealed that black people were 30.5 percent more likely to be killed.
