CARACAS – The violence associated with a wave of anti-government demonstrations in Venezuela is escalating and twelve more people have lost their lives. Eight of those died while looting a bakery and were electrocuted when they came in contact with a 220 kV cable.
Residents said looters saw an opportunity as protests in El Valle, an impoverished neighborhood in southwest Caracas, grew stronger and more chaotic., Fox News reports. Witnesses said they saw men coming down carrying guns and sticks.
“It looked like a war, we couldn’t get out,” a neighbor said.
In addition to those electrocuted, three others died hit by bullets allegedly shot by police force trying to stop the mayhem in El Valle, where a total of 17 stores were looted.
Daniela Alvarado, 25, who sells vegetables in the El Valle area, said the looting began after police officers fired tear gas and buckshot at demonstrators blocking a street with burning tires.
“People starting looting the businesses and yelling that they were hungry and that they want the government out,” Alvarado told Reuters. “We’re afraid (the stores) are going to run out of everything, that tomorrow there won’t be any food.”
“This is not hunger, this is delinquency against the people,” said another woman who works in the area.
Separately, a man was killed by a gunshot in a different protest in the Caracas slum of Petare on Thursday night, municipal mayor Carlos Ocariz said on Friday.
They are calling for community-level protests across the country on Friday, a white-clad “silent” march in Caracas on Saturday to commemorate those killed in the unrest, and a nationwide “sit-in” blocking Venezuela’s main roads on Monday.
Sound a lot like Obama’s America.
Unbelievable.
More to come as this story continues to develop.
God Bless.
