Brazilian football legend Rivaldo warns tourists planning to visit this year's Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games, AP wrote.
The reason - the city is plagued by crime and violence.
The 2002 World Cup champion spoke out after a tragedy on Sunday, when a sixteen-year-old was killed in Rio de Janeiro during an exchange of fire.
"Every day the situation becomes more and more critical. I advise anyone planning to go to the Rio games - stay at home. If you come here, you risk your life. Only God can fix the crisis in Brazil" - he wrote on "Instagram."
In January, "Forbes" declared Brazil as the "world capital of murder."
