The main access doors —including the frames— of a 26-story building were stolen during the early morning hours in the surroundings of the Plaza de la Revolución Ignacio Agramonte, in Camagüey, leaving the entrance of the property completely exposed where hundreds of people reside.
The report was made on Facebook by journalist José Luis Tan Estrada, who reported that the incident occurred during the night, with no known suspects at this time.
The removal of the doors leaves the property vulnerable and exacerbates a situation already characterized by failures in basic services, structural deterioration, and lack of maintenance.
The theft adds to a growing wave of vandalism and thefts recorded in various provinces of the country, where the removal of construction materials such as doors, frames, cables, grates, and metal parts is becoming increasingly common.
For many citizens, these events are directly linked to the severe economic and social crisis that Cuba is experiencing, which has pushed segments of the population to act out of desperation, while state institutions show limited capacity to prevent or respond to this type of crime.
In this case, in addition to the material loss, residents point out that the theft impacts the daily security of hundreds of families, as the building's access remains completely open.
So far, no official statement has been issued by the police authorities, nor has it been confirmed whether a formal investigation has been initiated. This is something common in an island steeped in misfortune.
