A chilling video captures the moment a Brazilian woman records her own death allegedly at the hands of her neighbour.
Willyene Mathais was shot twice in the face while filming a heated argument between herself and the man living next door.
The 22-year-old was using her phone to record the encounter in Santana de Cataguases, south east Brazil, when the man she is arguing with and who she refers to as Juliano, lifts up his t-shirt, pulls a gun from his trouser waistband and fires at point blank range.
According to local paper, Midia Mineira, the argument apparently started because the victim was accused by her neighbour of gossiping about him.
The pair are also reported to have fallen out over an earlier disagreement between their children.
It’s claimed Willyene filmed the incident to prove to her husband she was being wrongly accused and insulted by the man.
In just over two minutes, the matter quickly spirals out of control as the 40-year-old gunman appears to lose his temper and shoots her.
Before she is gunned down, Willyene can be heard reacting with horror and crying: ‘No Juliano, I’m not playing this game,’ as she realises the argument has turned into deadly one.
What happens next is harrowing.
In a split second the young mother of three’s life is cut short. She screams in terror as two shots ring out and the phone clatters to the ground as it records her own dying moments.
The suspect curses loudly as his victim lies on the floor.
According to reports the offender fled the crime scene but before leaving he is heard callously saying: ‘Now you’re going to hell, you demon.’
The recording ends with an unknown female coming to the wounded woman’s aid and screaming for help.
The incident, which happened on September 23, starts with the man being filmed as he mumbles under his breath that he’s fed up with people talking about his business.
Willyene who is standing on a terraced area at the top of a flight of stairs outside her house, calls to the man and challenges him by asking: ‘What do you mean Juliano?’
The man responds: ‘Yes you’re the one that’s spreading lies about me.’

The argument escalates as the neighbour comes up the stairs to the property and swears and threatens his victim. He accuses her of preventing him from talking to her husband which she denies.
As he goes back down the stairs, while still arguing, the suspect curses and tells his victim to go to hell.
Willyane responds with: ‘Yes, but you will go first and you don’t have the right to swear at me.’
During the argument the accused is alleged to have warned her that ‘she better be careful’.
To which the victim responds ‘What are you threatening to do to me? Tell me’.
Incensed by her attitude the accused calmly returns pulls out his gun and shoots.
The victim was rushed to Cataguases Hospital but never recovered consciousness and died shortly afterwards from her injuries.
The offender went on the run and was finally tracked to his house by cops where a .38 calibre gun was seized along with ammunition.
A police spokesperson said: ‘We have detained a suspect who is accused of murder. We recovered ammunition and a gun which we believe was used in the crime.
‘We are examining the film recorded on the victim’s phone and we are waiting for the autopsy report to help us complete our investigations.’
