A Cuban man passed away in the municipality of Colón, in the province of Matanzas, after being the victim of a violent assault during which he was robbed of his motorcycle, money, and the jewelry he was wearing.
The man, identified as Ricardo García but known as "Ñiquiñaca," was violently beaten in the face and also stabbed multiple times in the early hours of October 28.
The assailants stole his motorcycle, money, a gold chain, and some bracelets.
The stab wounds impacted his ribs and colon, according to the digital creator known on social media as "Díaz Canel Sin Gao," who shared a WhatsApp screenshot containing a testimony from someone close to the victim.
Ricardo García was admitted to intensive care at the municipal hospital of Colón "Mario Muñoz Monroy," where he was intubated and experienced clinical complications that he could not overcome.
Despite fighting for his life, Ricardo García ultimately succumbed to the severity of his injuries.
On Facebook, internet user Omar Sánchez, also a resident of Colón, expressed his sadness that many hours after the assault, the police had still not identified those responsible for the serious attack, which shocked the neighbors in that area of Matanzas.
"The people of Colón, family and friends, are awaiting a response from the police. Anyone with any information that could help clarify this crime can contact me privately. We want justice and exemplary capital punishment for the perpetrators of this horrendous crime," Sánchez stated in a post where, despite the seriousness of the situation, the victim of the assault was still alive.
"Justice for the exceptional human being whose life was taken. Death penalty for the one who committed such an act of cruelty," he concluded in a later post where he announced the death of Ricardo García.
In the comments section of various forums where the news has been shared, friends, neighbors, and acquaintances of Ricardo García have expressed their shock at his death, while other Cubans have voiced concerns about the rising violence that has taken hold on the island in recent years, where all kinds of crimes are increasingly proliferating.
As of the closing of this report, there is no official information regarding the case, which mourns a new Cuban family.
