Near riot during blackout in Placetas
PLACETAS, Cuba, August 26 (María
Elena Alpízar, Grupo Decoro / www.cubanet.org)
- Several groups of residents of Placetas,
in Villa Clara province, either enraged
or taking advantage of a blackout in the
early morning of Sunday, August 22, staged
a near riot in the streets, yelling anti-government
slogans and breaking glass doors in several
government stores.
Some of the disorders were staged by revelers
who had been at the Centro Cuba cabaret.
Others threw stones and broke the plate
glass at the Bazar Yamba-O and El Lente
photography shop. In several places, people
could be heard shouting "Down with
Fidel" and "Down with Communism."
