Soccer referee decapitated after stabbing player to death in Brazil

And this is in a non-third world country. Brazil, host of the next Summer Olympics.

WTF?

 

 

 

 

AO PAULO (AP) — Police say enraged spectators invaded a football field, stoned the referee to death and quartered his body after he stabbed a player to death.

The Public Safety Department of the state of Maranhao says in a statement that it all started when referee Otavio da Silva expelled player Josenir Abreu from a game last weekend. The two got into a fist fight, then Silva took out a knife and stabbed Abreu, who died on his way to the hospital.

The statement issued this week says Abreu's friends and relatives immediately "rushed into the field, stoned the referee to death and quartered his body."

Local news media say the spectators also decapitated Silva and stuck his head on a stake in the middle of the field.

Police have arrested one suspect.

Just a few thoughts upon reading this:

 

1) On a positive note, swift justice served.

 

2) Cant imagine why professional soccer has never really hit mainstream in America.

 

3) Oh Boy. The 2016 Olympics are finally gonna be exciting.

 

4) Looking forward to the world cup in Brazil in 2014. Lets see how the refs call the games - especially those involving the host.

 

5) An occupied soccer stadium is one of the most dangerous places on earth.

 

6) I'll go to Hell for this one: How did they know the ref had dandruff?

They found his Head & Shoulders on the field.

(CNN) -- The argument started over a red card.

It escalated when the referee fatally stabbed the player.

It ended when the player's enraged family members stoned the referee to death and dismembered his body.

Even for soccer, where violent outbreaks are all-too-common, what happened last week in a northern Brazil village was extraordinary.

Referee Jordan Silva called a foul during a soccer match. He showed player Josenir Santo Abreu a red card, the highest penalty, which translates into expulsion from the game.

Abreu, 30, wasn't going to take it, police said, and confronted the referee, who was 10 years younger.

The altercation grew ugly. Silva pulled a knife, and plunged it into Abreu's chest, Maranhao state police said in a statement.

While the player was rushed to a hospital, members of his family nabbed the referee and tied him up with the help of fans, CNN affiliate Band News reported. And they tortured him.

The player didn't make it to the hospital alive, police said. When the news reached his family back at the soccer field, the mob took retribution on Silva.

They stoned him to death.

And they cut his body into pieces.

Police later identified the suspects, easily.

They could be seen clearly in video images of the gory incident recorded with a cell phone.

This is why I don't vacation in 3rd world countries. You could go to a soccer game and end up in pieces, literally.
