Bloody Night (Portuguese: Noite Sangrenta) is the name by which the radical revolt that took place in Lisbon, on the night of 19 October 1921, became known.[1] During the day, a coup led António Granjo's government to resign, but President António José de Almeida resisted appointing the rebels' government.[2] During the night, a riot led by a "ghost truck" led by Abel Olímpio[3][4] resulted in five people associated with the Sidonist regime being killed and one being gravely injured.[3]
