Security camera video showing the moment a gunman walked into a school in Rio de Janeiro and opened fire on children in two classrooms has been released by police.

24 -year-old Wellington de Oliveira killed 12 children and then shot himself at a public school in a poor suburb of Rio, shocking the South American nation that has never seen such an incident before.

The hallway video shows Oliveira carrying a gun and several children running desperately out of two classrooms as he shot indiscriminately at them. Some are clearly injured. One grips his shoulder and limps down the hall.

In one scene the former pupil can be seen holding his gun outside the classroom where he launched his bloody spree before turning the weapon on himself.

The gunman roamed the halls of the school for children aged 10 to 15, lining his victims against a wall and shooting them in the head at point blank range as he shouted ‘I’m going to kill you all!’

Police said Oliveira, a former pupil, entered the school carrying two guns and a suicide note. He told security he was there to deliver a speech and then opened fire on students. The first video is really for those with tough stomachs
