An alleged criminal, aged 17, was shot and wounded yesterday when he was caught in the act (in flagrante delicto) of trying to mug a woman in the municipality of Haina. He was shot by an off-duty Police Sergeant Major as he tried to steal a so-called "Alca-Berry" cell phone from Isabel Castro Diaz. All this happened as the woman was leaving her home. A non-commissioned officer, Fermin Cuevas Lopez, caught the minor in the act and shot him in the buttocks as he tried to flee. The thief was also wanted by the Police on charges of stealing a policeman's sidearm on 11-12-2011. He was taken to the Juan Pablo Pina Hospital in San Cristobal.
