HAVANA, Cuba, May 28 (Luis Cino / www.cubanet.org) – A police cruiser
struck independent journalist Odelín Alfonso and his wife on Tuesday,
but she said she didn't think it was intentional.
Chief of police Lt. Michael Hodelín witnessed the accident, which
occurred in the municipality of San Miguel del Padrón at 10:40 a.m. when
the driver of the cruiser apparently lost control of the vehicle. The
couple was not injured.
"I don't think there was any intent on the part of the driver, who lost
control because he was driving too fast," said Alfonso's wife, Yaquelin
Cutiño.
When police asked Alonso for his identify card, he refused to show it,
saying, "Arrest me." He was placed in the cruiser that hit him, but the
police chief ordered his release, and he left with his wife.
