Bottles thrown against government building during blackout

CIENFUEGOS, Cuba - July 7 (Alejandro Tur Valladares, Cubanacán Press / www.cubanet.org) - Empty bottles were hurled against a government transportation building during a recent blackout.

Jorge Félix Ricabal, who lives in the area, said at 9:30 p.m. on June 25 he could hear bottles breaking against the building. Another neighbor, who declined to be identified, said more bottles were thrown half an hour later, prompting the appearance of a police officer.

Although the power outage was scheduled to last until midnight, the lights went back on at 10 p.m.

There have been protests in various places in Cuba because of a series of power blackouts.
