City councillor Luciana Novaes, 34, who was left tetraplegic by a stray bullet, poses for a portrait in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on August 8, 2017. On May 5, 2003, Luciana was hit by a bullet while in the canteen at her university. The injury left her with no movement from the neck to feet. The shot was fired during a clash between police and drug traffickers in the favela overlooking the university. In 2016 she was elected to the city council. The most brutal face of the economically collapsed city of Rio is reflected in the growing number of victims of stray bullets, the product of clashes between police and traffickers. AFP's "Stray bullets" project tells some of the victims' stories. / AFP PHOTO / MAURO PIMENTEL
