Brazilian Prison Riot Leaves 52 Prisoners Dead, 16 Decapitated

At least 16 prisoners were decapitated and dozens more were killed during a prison riot in Brazil.

At least 52 inmates died in the riots that involved criminal gangs in Para, located in the northern part of the country.

Two officers were also taken hostage as the rival gangs clashed, reported the AFP news agency on July 29.

The fight began at the Altamira Regional Recovery Center at around 7 a.m. local time, said a Para state official in the AFP report.

He said that two guards were taken hostage during the clashes before the gangs freed them.

According to BBC, reports in Brazil said that many inmates died of suffocation when the prison was set on fire. A video posted by Brazilian media outlets shows smoke emitting from a prison building, and another showed prisoners on rooftops.
