On Saturday night, October 14, two men were shot and injured during a shooting incident at a 'paredão' party in the Nova Brasília de Itapuã neighborhood of Salvador, Brazil. The attack occurred around 11:20 PM when armed men in a car opened fire on the partygoers. The victims were conscious and were transported to emergency hospitals in the region. The police confirmed that the situation is being treated as an attempted homicide case.

The local police, specifically the 12th Territorial Delegation of Itapuã, are conducting an investigation into the incident. Initial reports suggest that the two victims were innocent participants of the festivities when they became targets of a drive-by shooting. Authorities have increased police presence in the area following the attack, as they work to track down the suspects involved in the shooting.

The 'paredão' parties in Brazil, are large gatherings often featuring music and dancing, but sometimes they can escalate into violence, reflecting broader societal issues regarding safety and security in urban areas. This incident raises concerns about crime and public safety during social events in Salvador, a city that has been grappling with such violence in recent years.
