After the repercussion of the video, Ângelo Carioca published a recording on social media in which he admits to having attacked the teenager. However, he stated that he acted to defend a dog that, according to him, was being mistreated by the young man. "It was to defend a defenseless animal and it came from my heart. I help people from my heart and that touched my emotions, because the boy wanted to kill the animal and I didn't want that to happen", he said. The case is investigated by the competent authorities, who investigate the circumstances of the attack and possible liability for those involved.
