Jorge allegedly began fighting the social media personality’s friend, who ended up “unconscious.”
According to local press, Letícia, who has 70,200 followers online, revealed that she thought she was going to die in a statement.
“I was in a state of shock,” she claimed.
“My despair was very great.
“In my head, I was already dead.”
She alleged: “My friend and Jorge had a fight.
“Very quickly my friend hit his head on the floor and was unconscious.
“Jorge jumped right on top of me ‘flirting’ and I punched him and he fell to the ground.
“I tried to run, but my ex grabbed me by the neck.”
Letícia then revealed that Jorge allegedly tried to put her in his car which caught the attention of her neighbours.
She claimed: “He opened the gate and I screamed, ‘Help, someone, help me, for God’s sake’.
“He put me in the car and I kicked, screaming, until the neighbours, thank God, showed up.
“When the neighbours showed up, I got out of the car, and they had already knocked him down and immobilized him.”
On the night of 6 May, Jorge was arrested after he assaulted Letícia and her friend, as reported by Need To Know.
The alleged row took place in the Eduardo Costa residential area, which is south of Teresina, east of Manaus, Brazil.
It has been reported that the relationship between the two had ended 10 days prior to the assault.
According to the local press, Leticia was open about what had happened the day after, on 7 May on social media.
She has stated that she feels Jorge does not accept that their relationship has come to an end.
The content creator even said that she filed a report against her ex-boyfriend days ago and has a protective measure against him.
Dellano Sousa, the influencer’s lawyer, has revealed that Letícia is afraid he may be released by authorities.
According to Dellano, Jorge has previously made threats against her.
The case is currently being investigated by police who specialise in women’s care, in Teresina.
