Rio Police in favelas!!

At the moment in Rio de Janeiro, it seems the police are trying to get the drug dealers out of control in the favelas... the police and the army soldiers are grouping together and fighting back now.  All the while the drug dealers and people living up in the Favelas are coming down to the city and burning cars, buses and anything which will cause havoc on innocent people.  Not caring if people die or get injured.

The aim I suppose is to try and get the police out of the favelas and back down into the city areas, this clearly isn´t working.  Their are police all over.. it seems to me Rio is defently not ready to host the World Cup in 2014.

BBC news has the latest of what is happening.  See the link below

I believe this will be on going for the next few months or years in fact...
