These "Brazil Riot" Photos On Twitter Are Not From Today

This photo posted on social media purports to be Brazilian fans rioting during Germany’s 7-1 victory over Brazil.

But it's actually from June 26, 2013, when riot police clashed with demonstrators during a protest near the Mineirao Stadium in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.

Similar photos made their way around Twitter, purporting to show riots in the streets of Brazil during the national team's 7-1 loss.

But again, this photo is also from June of 2013 during protests in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
