SAO PAULO (Reuters) - A Brazilian teenager has been declared brain dead after being held hostage for four days and then shot by her ex-boyfriend, doctors said late on Saturday.
In a case that shocked the country, police say Lindemberg Fernandes Alves kidnapped Eloa Cristina Pimentel, 15, and her friend last week and held them in an apartment on the outskirts of Sao Paulo after the end of a two-year relationship.
