Rio's Vila Autodromo Partially Razed In Advance Of Olympics

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - JANUARY 21: Fabiano Rocha swings near the rubble of a former home next to his father's home, which is still standing, in the Vila Autodromo community, or 'favela', on January 21, 2015 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. A large hotel rises inside the Olympic Park in the background. The favela stands just outside the fences of the new Olympic Park being constructed for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. Residents were pressured to move by the government and about half have so far accepted compensation offers and moved; their homes subsequently being demolished. The remaining half so far remain in their homes as the massive set of venues is constructed next door to the community. (Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images)
