Alex Oliveira was injured by a hand grenade in Brazil on Christmas Eve.
Quote:
“One guy came up and pointed a gun at my nephew’s face, and that’s when people started pushing each other,” Oliveira told the website. “They had machetes, knives, a grenade. They threw a grenade in my direction. Fragments flew to my leg and my foot.”

He was taken to a local hospital where he underwent surgery to remove grenade fragments from his leg.
