Influencer stabbed multiple times by boyfriend during livestream
An influencer has been hospitalised after her boyfriend allegedly stabbed her nine times during a livestream after she told him she wanted to break up with him.
Luna Ambrozevicius Abrahao, 22, was broadcasting live on Instagram from the city of São Paulo, Brazil, on May 19 when her boyfriend launched the knife assault.
Video footage of the aftermath, which Luna captured on her phone, showed her howling in pain as blood poured from her body.
As she moves the camera, a giant blade that apparently broke off from the knife used in the attack can be seen lying next to her slashed foot, with a gaping wound visible between her big toe and her second toe.
She was rushed to the hospital with multiple stab wounds and underwent emergency surgery and survived despite being stabbed in the head, in the back, in the hand and in the foot.
Remains in serious condition
Police are currently searching for her boyfriend, named Alex Olievira, who fled the scene after the attack.
He is facing charges of domestic violence and attempted murder.
Investigators confirmed the woman, who has a four-year-old daughter, had been arguing with Olievira before the stabbing.
Neighbours told officers they often heard fights from the flat where the pair lived.
Social media users who witnessed the livestream called emergency services as the violence erupted.
Taken down
Others shared clips of the livestream, which has since been taken down by the platform.
Luna has over 255,000 followers on Instagram and is known for her posts about beauty, fashion, and dancing.
In March, a Japanese woman who was brutally stabbed to death while livestreaming to over 6,000 people was identified as an influencer who was targeted by one of her followers.
Japanese streamer Airi Sato, 22, was confirmed dead after a crazed man attacked her with a knife, stabbing her in the neck, head and chest while thousands watched.
Little is known about Sato’s private life; however, sources claim the influencer has been creating content since she was in high school.
Her content centered around her day to day ‘real life’. She had filmed herself in a video titled ‘3.11 Walking Around the Yamanote Line’ as she circled the well-known railway service loop.
The young streamer was allegedly killed by 42-year-old Kenichi Takano, who was arrested at the ghastly crime scene in Tokyo’s Shinjuku district.
Police sources told local media that Takano tracked Sato down after he recognised the buildings in the back of her video.
He later told police that he had lent Sato a ‘substantial sum of money’ – approximately Ksh2.2 million – and was never repaid, TokyoHive reported.
The 42-year-old reportedly became acquainted with Sato in 2021 through her livestreams.
Over time, their relationship took on a financial dimension, with Sato frequently asking for loans under various circumstances, claiming she had forgotten her wallet, lost access to her funds, or needed urgent financial help.
Messages exchanged between the two suggest that these requests escalated, with Sato borrowing small amounts at first before requesting larger sums, according to the outlet.
Despite Takano providing financial support, repayment never materialised. He eventually took legal action, winning a court case for the outstanding debt.
Even with the ruling in his favour, no payments were made.
The unresolved financial dispute appears to have deepened Takano’s frustration, leading to the alleged violent escalation.
