A 26-year-old Cuban man was fatally struck by a hit-and-run driver in Colón, a municipality in Matanzas. The tragic incident occurred last Saturday around 1:00 am, when a bus or car hit him and left him abandoned.

Yamila Hernández, the victim's wife, reported the incident on her Facebook page and called for help in locating the perpetrator. "He left him lying there like a dog, didn't help him, and fled the scene," she stated.

"This happened near the El Hawái restaurant, under the trees, before entering the Reparto Libertad area. I demand justice; if he hadn't run away, maybe he could have been saved," she explained.

Yamila recalled that her husband was only 26 years old and urged the Police to do their job and find the person responsible for his death. "Damn, what kind of conscience does he have, if he has a child, a wife, damn, to leave him lying there like a rock or an insignificant object," she questioned.
