"Fatal Ax Attack at Brazilian Day Care Center Leaves 4 Children Dead"

A man with a hatchet killed four children and wounded at least four others at a day care center in Brazil. The attacker turned himself in and did not appear to have any connection with the center. School attacks in Brazil have happened with greater frequency in recent years, with at least 16 attacks or violent episodes happening in schools from 2000 to 2022. Experts say April is a particularly sensitive month for school attacks as it concentrates the anniversaries of past school shootings. Brazilian officials are directing funds towards school safety and addressing school violence.
