On the morning of this Friday, residents of the Luyanó neighborhood in Havana captured on video a man attempting to flee after allegedly committing a robbery in a home.
The images shared on social media show the individual hanging from a balcony, barely holding on with one arm, before falling from the second floor. Despite the impact, the person managed to get up and ran away from the scene, according to witnesses.
The video, shared by several social media profiles, including @cubanerisimo0, also shows neighbors shouting for someone to call the police as they watched the scene with shock and outrage.
So far, there is no official confirmation that the man has been arrested by the authorities. In the images, his face is clearly visible, which could aid in his identification.
The incident has raised alarm in the community, where residents claim that thefts and assaults have become more frequent due to a lack of surveillance and the growing economic crisis affecting Cuba.
