HAVANA, January 31 (Fara Armenteros, UPECI / www.cubanet.org) - Two women
who were arrested by police ended up in the hospital instead of at the police
station when the police car in which they were transported overturned. The
women, Mariela Suárez and Isabel García, had been detained because
police found shopping bags with green beans in their possession.
Bystanders said the car was speeding before it overturned. "The
accident happened outside the town of Torriente, when the driver of patrol car
514 made a drastic turn and since he was going very fast, he could not control
the car and it overturned," said Luis Alberto Amaya.
The women were reported to be in serious condition. The driver of the patrol
car, René Pérez, was also hurt in the accident.
