Candidate hits opponent with chair during live TV debate
ai generated text
During a live televised mayoral debate in São Paulo, a heated argument broke out between José Luiz Datena and opponent Pablo Marçal. The altercation escalated when Datena slammed a chair into Marçal's shoulder, resulting in a fractured rib and a dislocated finger. The incident is likely to impact the mayoral election, with some sources suggesting it may reorder the race. The dispute began when Marçal brought up old sexual harassment allegations against Datena, which were dismissed several years ago. Datena claims he attacked Marçal in response to the allegations, stating they caused a serious situation within his family.
He came with a case that was archived, that was not even investigated by the police because there was no evidence. Something from 11 years ago that caused a very serious situation within my family.
You once came over to me during a debate to give me a slap, but you're not even man enough to do that.
It was good theater, aimed to help a lagging campaign.
Most voters had no idea he was a candidate and now everyone is talking about him. He could grow in the polls.
