Brazilian police found the bodies of drug traffickers suspected of killing three doctors in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on Thursday.
Authorities found four bodies in two cars. Three were in a car and the other body was in another vehicle, G1 reported.
Three were identified as drug traffickers suspected of taking part in the armed attack on the doctors. The other has yet to be identified. Two other suspects confirmed to have taken part in the shooting were not among the dead.
The attack took place on Thursday when three orthopedic doctors were murdered at a beach kiosk in Rio de Janeiro’s Barra da Tijuca neighborhood. The suspects got out of a car, fired more than twenty shots and fled without taking any material possessions.
