Speaking yesterday on local radio station Radio Formosa, journalist Gabriel Oliveira said: "The video started circulating a few hours ago and the whole town is very angry and he will receive social condemnation.
"This man is from a traditional Ibarreta family and lives alone.
"At first the police didn't want to receive the complaint, because several neighbors gathered in front of the police station, so the complaint has already been made.
