Some 200 people are marching in Rio de Janeiro to protest the death of an 8-year old girl killed by a stray bullet during a police operation, while family members buried her body.

Protesters braved the rain Sunday to express their anger at the death of Ágatha Sales Félix, shot Friday in Rio's largest shantytown.

Children carried yellow balloons in protest, alluding to a photo of Sales that has been circulating on social media. Those leading the march carried a banning saying "Stop Killing Us" in red letters.
