On 6 September 2018, then federal deputy Jair Bolsonaro suffered an attack during a rally promoting his election campaign for the presidency of Brazil. While being carried through a crowd of supporters, Jair Bolsonaro suffered a knife wound to the abdomen from Adélio Bispo de Oliveira. Immediately after the attack, Bolsonaro was taken to the Santa Casa de Misericórdia in Juiz de Fora, where it was found that the stabbing had caused three injuries to his small intestine and an injury to a vein in the abdomen that caused heavy bleeding. Despite the seriousness of the injuries and the heavy loss of blood, the presidential candidate managed to survive. In all, Bolsonaro underwent four surgeries related to the damage caused by the attack. Adélio Bispo de Oliveira was arrested in the act by the Federal Police and taken to the city's central police station. After an investigation, the police concluded that he acted alone in the crime, without being directed by a mastermind. In June 2019, de Oliveira's pre-trial detention was converted into an indefinite internment in the federal penitentiary of Campo Grande, capital city of Mato Grosso do Sul.
