Woman shot, killed after Waze GPS sends her into dangerous Brazilian favela


When traveling outside the US, you can't just take the shortest route from point A to point B. I had a close call when wandering into a favela called Joana Bezerra in Recife.

the Murmuras were requested directions to Quintino Bocaiuva Avenue — but the app directed them instead to Rua Quintino Bocaviba, which runs through the Caramujo favela.

“They thought I was a police officer,” recalled Francisco at his wife’s funeral
