Police shoot unlicensed bread peddler

SANTA CLARA, Cuba, March 3 (José Moreno Cruz, Cubanacán Press / www.cubanet.org) - Police took a few pot shots at a man they say they found peddling bread without the appropriate license in the La Chirusa sector of Santa Clara.

The man eluded capture by riding his bicycle through a pedestrians-only area and diving into the Bélico river.

Local residents ran home for cover upon hearing the first shots; they eventually battened down taking little notice of the fleeing suspect. None of them said they could identify him, but police said they have seen the man before engaging in the same activity.
