CIEGO DE AVILA, February 20 (Lexter Téllez, APLA / www.cubanet.org) -
Police shot Humberto Hernández, 29, after he apparently went berserk and
broke store windows at the shopping mall on Florida Street and threw stones at
police cars.
According to eyewitnesses, Hernández was wounded several times. More
details were not available, as police were not giving out any information on his
condition or on where they had taken him.
Hernández has repeatedly been committed to the psychiatric hospital
in Camagüey by police orders. A human rights activist said that police had
beaten Hernández several times because he had written signs on walls that
authorities consider anti-government propaganda.
