Neighbors help a man stabbed in the middle of the street in Cruces, Cienfuegos.

Neighbors of the municipality of Cruces, in Cienfuegos, assisted a man who was stabbed in the street on Saturday night during a blackout.

Independent journalist Jesús Fernández Garnier reported the incident on his Facebook wall and shared the photo of the man lying in the street while people look at him.

According to the account, the man was walking unsteadily until he fell at the corner and started to ask for help almost imperceptibly.

"Until the neighbors noticed that blood was oozing from his stomach. He had been stabbed," he pointed out.

Fernández Garnier shared the video recorded by a resident of the block that shows how the residents of the area stopped a vehicle to transport the injured person to the hospital.

So far, it is not known if he survived the injuries and the cause of the attack.

These types of violent incidents are becoming more frequent, reflecting the violence that has taken hold of Cuban society.

On August 17, a 36-year-old man was killed at a party in the town of Chile in the San Luis municipality, in Santiago de Cuba.

The victim, identified as Luis Ángel García Torres, received "two treacherous machete blows while dancing with his wife," reported the user Yordan Roque Álvarez, administrator of the Facebook group "Revolico San Luis."

According to the source, the killer identified himself as the son of Cheo Morales (from the Morales family of that town), and the attack allegedly stemmed from "a settling of scores" from a previous fight.

A few days earlier, a 28-year-old young man, father of a small girl and a resident of the Altamira neighborhood in Santiago de Cuba, was stabbed one night near a bus stop. He was urgently taken to the Joaquín Castillo Duany Military Hospital with serious injuries.

At the end of June, a teenager was murdered with two stab wounds in a music studio in Centro Habana.

The victim was named Jean Franco and lived near Parque Trillo, in the neighborhood of Cayo Hueso.

According to what the internet user Rafael Quiros said on Facebook, the crime was "over a music issue, in a studio."
