Music fan got on stage at concert to 'propose to girlfriend'...just hours later, he did something unspeakable
A scorned man is under arrest in Brazil following the murder of his former girlfriend, who refused to resume their relationship despite a public plea at a live concert.
Adailton dos Santos attended musician Kelson Kizz's show as part of the Santo Antônio Festival in Santo Antônio, Paraibá on Wednesday and asked to make a marriage proposal to Vitória de Lima, 32, on the stage.
Kelson Kizz obliged and stopped his show as dos Santos joined him in front of the band, video footage showed
The singer appeared to be stunned when dos Santos changed his tune and whispered into his ear that what he really wanted to reconcile with de Lima.
When Kelson Kizz how long they had been dating, dos Santos told him that they were separated for only a couple of days.
'Adailton mustered up the courage, it's today. He said she won't escape today,' Kelson Kizz said in the video.
'Santo Antônio, matchmaker, I hope you perform a miracle. Hello Vitória, where are you? I don't think she's coming.'
They both waited around two minutes for de Lima, who failed to come to the stage, as a dejected dos Santos looked towards the crowd in shock.
After the show, dos Santos returned to his home in town of Solânea, where de Lima also lived, and ambushed her when he saw her walking to her residence on Thursday at 4:36am, it is alleged.
Authorities said Vitória de Lima (pictured) had broken up her relationship with Adailton dos Santos, her former boyfriend of two months, earlier during the week before she was ambushed by him and stabbed dead near her home Thursday
Surveillance video showed De Lima attempted to run away from dos Santos before she fell with him to the ground and was stabbed, according to police.
She was rushed to an area hospital, where she died from her injuries.
A stunned Kelson Kizz took to his Instagram Story on Thursday in search of answers.
'This shocked me, I haven't slept since 7am, I haven't slept a wink, and somehow we end up feeling guilty, even though we know there was nothing we could have done,' he said.
'The guy went up, told the production team that it was a marriage proposal, and when he got to the front of the stage he said it was a reconciliation,' Kelson Kizz added.
'But he used the names of people from the victim's family, he knew the person's life in detail. We tried to smooth things over as best we could, but unfortunately he committed femicide.'
Adailton dos Santos was seen on a surveillance video ambushing his former girlfriend, Vitôria de Lima, before he stabbed and killed her near her home in Santo Antônio, a city in the northeastern Brazilian state of Paraibá
The Paraibá Military Police arrested dos Santos at the scene of the crime, which he returned to with a set of new clothes.
He initially told officers that he was not involved and then confessed after the presented evidence linking him to de Lima's murder.
Paraibá Military Police Diogenes Fernandes told Brazilian news outlet G1 that dos Santos and de Lima had dated for only two months before she called off the relationship earlier this week.
'In a cold manner, he goes to his residence, changes his shirt and returns to the scene of the crime in an attempt to simulate rescue for the victim,' Paraibá Military Police Diogenes Fernandes told Brazilian news outlet G1.
'He confessed to the crime, the murder weapon was seized and he was sent to the local public jail.'
