Horrific elevator attack by male
An incident where another woman saved her coworker from her ex-partner’s attack.
The video captures a 20-year-old man jumping a turnstile at his ex-partner’s workplace to attack her as she tries to escape. Her brave coworker places herself between them, preventing worse harm, while the aggressor targets only the victim. Online reactions highlight how women often protect each other from male violence, especially when relationships end—the most dangerous time, with studies showing a 75% violence increase upon separation that can last two years. Commenters call for workplace protections and challenge ideas of men as default protectors.

The above incident entailed an attack that took place inside some offices on Avenida Salgado Filho in São Paulo, Brazil, on 16th March 2026. The video recorded 20-year-old Ronaldo Ferreira brutally punching his ex-partner, Byanca Aparecida dos Santos, inside her workplace elevator. One of dos Santos’ coworkers ran to aid her and fight off Ferreira. After his arrest on the 16th, the courts released Ferreira from custody on 17th March. Following an interview with dos Santos in the Brazilian newspaper Globo, an outrage ensued and on 20th March 2026 the São Paulo Court of Justice had Ferreira re-arrested.
Its a horrific situation no doubt and the male thought he was totally entitled to it because of a number of things. 1) The abomination known as patriarchy. 2) By way of her being his ex he had previously owned her – and despite that he continued to have an assumed ownership as is so often the case. Clearly the stupidity of these entitled men knows no bounds.
Its evident that many men view themselves as the protectors (its why they’re conducting what can be deemed to be perpetual wars – an important asset in terms of the sexual violation of women. That as well as bringing the planet almost to its knees). Invariably they have owned everything (including women) hence the response had been due to this grossly mistaken world view.
Its why Ferreira had said he always gets ‘what he wants.’
