>

A pair of gunmen with shotguns and pistols murdered seven people, including a 12-year-old girl, at a pool hall in Brazil in a fit of rage after losing two games in a row.

CCTV footage of Tuesday’s bloodbath in the city of Sinop, Mato Grosso, showed the moment a gun-wielding perpetrator ordered his hostages to line up against a wall while his accomplice reached for what appears to be a shotgun. a nearby truck.

Moments later, the second gunman returns to the hallway, and the pair begin shooting their captives at near point-blank range, leaving them with no chance of escape.

Police said the attackers, identified as Edgar Ricardo de Oliveira, 30, and Ezequias Souza Ribeiro, 27, fled the scene and are still at large.

The delegate of the Civil Police, Braulio Junqueira, said that the investigators are comparing the testimonies of the witnesses and looking for the murderers in cold blood. He explained that Oliveira had played a game of pool against one of the victims on Tuesday morning and lost around 4,000 reais (£640).

In the afternoon, he returned to Ezequiel and challenged the man a second time, but lost again, prompting laughter from passers-by. The humiliation and refusal to pay caused the couple to break up and slaughter almost everyone present.

Six of his victims died on the spot, having been executed mere meters away.

Brazilian police identified them as Larissa Frasao de Almeida, 12, Orisberto Pereira Sousa, 38, Adriano Balbinote, 46, Getulio Rodrigues Frasao Junior, 36, Josue Ramos Tenorio, 48, and Maciel Bruno de Andrade Costa, 35 – the pool hall owner .

A seventh victim, Elizeu Santos da Silva, 47, somehow survived the initial shooting and was rushed to hospital, but later succumbed to his injuries.

Heartbreaking security footage shows the first victim, pool hall owner Costa, fall to the ground after being shot from no more than six feet away.

Four more patrons are gunned down one by one on the spot, before the killers turn on the two remaining victims who had fled into the street and cut them down before long.

Inexplicably, they decided to leave a terrified woman alive: she can be seen pinned to the ground in fear, throwing up her hands in horror even after the armed men have left.

The shooters returned to the tables to collect bills and coins and stole a purse before fleeing.

Before leaving, the ruthless killers go from table to table collecting small amounts of cash, also stopping to steal one of the victim’s bags as the woman silently watches.

Police Lt. Romening dos Santos Silva said the gunmen took revenge after losing two pool games in which they had wagered a small amount of money.

After their first loss, they went looking for more money only to lose again when they came back.

The officer said: “From the way it happened, it’s clear that some victims may not have even been involved in the gambling that was taking place at the establishment.”

Detectives in Mato Grosso are now searching for the killers, but their current whereabouts are unknown.

According to police records, Oliveira had been arrested in the past for domestic violence.

Meanwhile, Souza has a lengthy criminal record that includes arrests for illegal possession of a firearm, gang robbery, assault and menacing.
