“I saw in the distance that a crowd of people were moving at high speed,” Lina told El Mundo. However, while another of Luiz’s friends, Lina, helped him to search for his phone, the attacker returned with a group of people - at least 12 in total. Others outside the club reportedly came over to help Luiz, forcing the attacker and an accomplice away from the scene. Vanesa, the friend who participated in the video call, said that the man didn’t wait for a response, and instead “punched very hard.”
