CUBA
Youth wanted to throw stones at police chief;
broke glass instead
CAMAGUEY, Cuba - April 19 (Marilyn Díaz
Fernández, Lux Info Press / www.cubanet.org)
- A young man who was arrested after breaking
the windows of a government dollar store
in Sibanicú said he had been carrying
the stones to throw at a sector chief of
police and only broke the glass when he
couldn't find the officer.
Ignacio Caselles Pérez, 18, who
people in town generally agree has psychological
problems, stoned the windows of the "El
Pueblo" dollar store during the night
of April 11 and was arrested the same day
after having been identified by an eye-witness.
After he was arrested, he told police he
had been carrying the stones to throw at
a sector chief of police known in town as
Pompa, and that he only decided to stone
the store windows when he couldn't find
him.
Caselles was sentenced to three months
in prison for causing damage to property
on April 13.
