A man was found dead in an armchair on a street in Havana

A man was found dead this afternoon on Acosta Avenue, near José de la Luz y Caballero Street, close to the Mónaco, in the 10th of October municipality. According to eyewitnesses, the body, which had a stab wound in the chest, was seated in an armchair positioned in front of a pharmacy.

Neighbors in the area shared details on social media. One of them commented, "That happened just around the corner from my house; he was stabbed in the chest. That armchair wasn't there; it was at the corner of Luz and Caballero and Acosta, where someone had thrown it out. They moved the armchair almost right in front of the pharmacy. They stabbed him and left him sitting there. He looks to be about 50 years old, and nobody knows him from the neighborhood."

Another neighbor described the conditions of the area, highlighting the insecurity that characterizes the zone at night: "Avenida Acosta is very deserted at night, and everyone stays inside. It was at the pharmacy door, which is usually dark, and on the other corner stands the old house of the late Elio Revé. Although the entrance provides some light, it is still quite gloomy. I am truly very shocked."

Experts in criminalistics and officials from the Technical Investigation Department (DTI) are currently working on-site, conducting inquiries to clarify the events. So far, the identity of the victim and the exact circumstances of the incident have not been disclosed.
