Hooded men stoned the car in which the governor of Río Negro, Arabela Carreras, was traveling to see the cut that protesters were making on Route 40, at the height of Villa Mascardi.
In the video captured by the television cameras that were in the place, you can see how, from a high altitude, the hooded men push back the official cars with pure stones.
Faced with this situation, the car that was transferring to Carreras had to leave the place, without the provincial president getting out of the vehicle.
The local newspaper

reported that the provincial police entered the private property that was occupied in El Foyel and it was there that the hooded men cut off the national route at the height of where the Lafken Winkul Mapu Mapuche community was established, in 2017.
Police sources reported that the cut occurred after 3 on Monday, on the road that connects Bariloche with the south of Río Negro and the north of Chubut.
The Mapuche group that maintains an active takeover in Villa Mascardi cut Route 40 in that area this Monday, after the judicial order for the “immediate” eviction of the Mapuche group that carries out the takeover in El Foyel, 40 kilometers further south.
The cut carried out by a few people, who burned tires to cut off traffic.
This morning, the Río Negro Justice ordered the eviction of the land occupied by a Mapuche community since last Thursday.
