Brazil Police Hunt for Possible Serial Killer Targeting Gays
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Brazilian police are investigating whether a possible serial killer is behind the murders of more than a dozen gay men in a park in suburban Sao Paulo.
Police chief Paulo Fernando Fortunato tells the O Globo newspaper that 13 gay men were killed there between February 2007 and August 2008.
He says police are not sure whether a single person is responsible. Undercover police are now patrolling the park at night.

His comments were published Monday. Requests for police comment were not immediately answered.
