Police attack young man with a skateboard

It wasn't enough all the aggressiveness with which the Brazilian police treat the population in the last years with rubber bullets and tear gas, police in the state of São Paulo started beating people with other objects such as rocks and even a skateboard.
In January, during a manifestation against the increase in bus fares, the state police surrounded a group of protesters who were unarmed and protesting peacefully. After beating in the people with sticks and rubber bullets, cowardly attacked a young man that was isolated from the group, applying blows to the boy's head with a skateboard.
The governor was approached by newspapers and magazines but gave no explanation of the fact.
