The attack took place at the Cantinho Bom Pastor daycare center, a small private school in the Velha neighborhood, in Blumenau.

The suspect invaded the daycare center with a hatchet, attacked the children and soon after handed himself in to the PM Battalion, according to Santa Catarina's general police chief, Ulisses Gabriel. The criminal's age was not revealed.

The children were between 4 and 7 years old. The suspect is 25 years old.

In an interview with reporters at the scene, broadcast on RBS TV, the case's delegate informed that the investigation will involve the Computer Crime Repression Police Station, which has expertise in extracting data from telephones and computers. “We want to identify if there are any other participants. If anyone else participated. How he came up with this plan. Where did he get information?”, said

President Lula deeply regretted the deaths in a post on Twitter:

For any human being who has a Christian feeling, a tragedy like this is unacceptable, a behavior, an absurd act of hatred and cowardice like this.
