Assailants becoming bolder in Havana

Assailants becoming bolder in Havana

HAVANA, Cuba - July 7 (Juan Carlos Linares Balmaseda / www.cubanet.org)
- When two men of about 30 held up a man at the entrance to the Hijas de
Galicia maternity hospital at about 9:00 p.m. last Friday, the 20 or so
eyewitnesses expressed anything but surprise.

Such incidents are becoming more and more frequent, they all concurred.

The two assailants were after the three gold chains their victim, a man
of about 40, was wearing around his neck. Between blows and stab wounds,
they managed to wrestle one of them and make their getaway.

The victim declined to notify police of the assault.
