Kayaker in Amazon shot dead by pirates who robbed for her GoPro

A British adventurer who had been on a solo kayaking trip through the Amazon was shot dead by pirates, police have confirmed.

Emma Kelty, 43, had been 42 days into her 4,000-mile trip along the Amazon River when she was robbed and fatally shot, with the pirates then throwing her body into the river.

Police said her attackers had tried to sell the items they stole from her — including two mobile phones, a tablet and GoPro camera — at a market in Lauro Sodré.

A great tragedy, that's amazing that the Amazon could be 4,000 miles long....hard to fathom.
