In this July 7, 2016 photo, a police officer runs for cover during an exchange of gunfire with drug traffickers at the “pacified” Alemao slum complex in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Half a dozen officers had entrenched themselves behind a cable car station while they shot it out with suspected drug traffickers in the sprawling cluster of slums in north Rio. Shootouts erupt daily, even in slums where community policing programs had successfully rewritten the narrative in recent years. (Photo by Felipe Dana/AP Photo)
