30 Argentine Tourists Taken Hostages in
Brazilian Hostel
Rio de Janeiro - A group of armed men
attacked a hostel Monday by a well-known
beach in the Brazilian state of Rio de
Janeiro, taking some 30 Argentine tourists
hostages for three hours, said police.
The criminal band consisted of seven masked
men with weapons, took jewelry, money, cams
and other stuffs from the tourists.
The event occurred on Monday early morning
in Unicornio hostel on Ferradura Beach.
"They knew the hostel was full and in that
time nobody will enter or leave the place.
That makes us think they knew well the
place," said police chief from Buzios,
inspector Jorge Luiz Dias.
Dias added that the criminal could have been
helped by employees or guests in the hostel.
Busios is located in the north border of Rio
do Janeiro, and it is one of the most famous
beaches.
This attack was similar to other ones
occurred in two hostels before the Carnival
of this year in Rio do Janeiro.
