Breaking: Lady Gaga Rio bomb plot foiled
Police in Brazil said on Sunday that two people have been arrested in connection with an alleged plot to detonate a bomb at a free Lady Gaga concert in Rio de Janeiro. The event, on Saturday, was the biggest show of the pop star’s career that drew some 2 million fans to Copacabana Beach. Rio de Janeiro’s state police said they had worked with the Justice Ministry to disrupt an attack allegedly planned by a group that was spreading hate speech against the LGBTQ community. Police said the group sought to radicalize and recruit teenagers to carry out attacks using Molotov cocktails and improvised explosives.
