Skateboarding Competition in Rio's Favela

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - SEPTEMBER 20: Participants ride during a skateboarding competition held in the occupied Complexo da Mare, one of the largest favela comlexes in Rio, on September 20, 2014 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. A shootout occurred earlier in the day near a school between rival gang factions. The Brazilian government has currently deployed around 2,400 federal troops to occupy the group of violence-plagued favelas, also known as communities. The group of 16 communities house around 130,000 residents and had been dominated by drug gangs and militias. (Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images)
