“The police appear at the time when there was no one there, all these days they have continued setting off firecrackers, until yesterday what was about to happen happens,” says this neighbor who called the police last night after witnessing the firecrackers “of horrible bomb types.” “, and observe how they put them inside the containers, “especially in the clothing container, which, being metal, made more noise,” he adds.
Insecurity is growing in the La Candelaria neighborhood, a neighborhood that “will get worse every year,” comments the neighbor and asks the La Laguna City Council and the police to “do something” about it.
