The attacks were recorded at Primo Betty Public School and Praia de Coqueral Private Education Center School, close to each other, in the municipality of 104,000 inhabitants in the interior of Espírito Santo.

The action began in the public school, where two people were killed and nine others injured, according to Espiritu Santo, Secretary of Public Security and Social Defense, Marcio Silante.

The shooter entered the building around 9 a.m. after breaking the lock. The work took place inside the teachers’ room. The two teachers, Sibyl Passos Bezera Lara, 45, and Maria da Penha Pereira, 48, died.
After the initial attack, he drove to the Praia de Coqueiral Education Center, which is private and located in the same road, about a kilometer away. At the scene of the accident, the teenager caused three more victims, all of them students. One of them, Celina Sagrelo Zucoloto, 12, died.

The suspect in the crime was arrested around 3:30 pm, in the same city. According to Governor Renato Casagrande (PSB), he studied at Primo Pitti until June, when he was transferred at his family’s request.

The student was going to use two of his weapons to commit the attacks, a semi-automatic handgun and a handgun, according to the Civil Police. The car used to travel to the two schools was also owned by the father.

“He had planned this action for two years, but he did not say why. […] He was in shock, but he was calm, and we couldn’t tell if he showed remorse,” said Joao Francisco Filho, director of the Northern District Police of Espírito Santo.
