Brazilian soccer fan hacked to death in clash between rival gangs

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (AP) - A 20-year-old soccer fan was hacked to death with a sickle and dozens were arrested after a brutal clash between rival soccer gangs, police said Monday.

Rafick da Silva Cancio was lashed three times with a sickle when a brawl erupted Sunday during a chance meeting of Flamengo and Botafogo fans. Cancio, a fan of Botafogo, died before police arrived to stop the melee.

``It was inhuman,'' officer Delis Prates said in a televised interview.
