The referee rules

Otavio da Silva was refereeing an amateur soccer game in a small town in Brazil.  He threw one of the players out of the game.  The player did not like it and the two engaged in fisticuffs.  When the fight ended, the player would not leave the field, so Mr. da Siva stabbed him.  The player's friends and fans were justifiably upset and stormed onto the field.  There they stoned the referee and chopped off his head.
