In a scene of urban violence during the storm, a group of residents of
Lanús
affected by the flood had a strong fight with the occupants of a truck that was passing through the streets of the neighborhood
making waves
, which brought even more water into the homes.
The protest escalated and ended with
the firing of a firearm.
The tense situation took place on the corner of Dr. Roberto Paxot and Tuyutí, in the town of Valentín Alsina.
During the afternoon,
the street was flooded, with water reaching nearly the waists
of the neighbors.
At that moment, a 4x4 truck was passing down the street, while from the windows the neighbors shouted at it to slow down or be careful with the movement generated by the car's wake, as it was bringing water into the houses.
The waves that were produced were so high that they even reached the windows of the neighborhood.
"Boy, hey, hey, hey," a neighbor shouted at the driver, increasingly angry.
The sequence was recorded by two neighbors, who were watching everything from the first floor balcony.
As he passed the corner, without stopping
, another man came out to the driver's intersection with a stick in his hand.
He began to insult him loudly, and then hit him hard on the back of the vehicle.
There you see that he hits him twice, when you hear the detonation of a firearm and a flash over the passenger door.
Although the neighbor who filmed the sequence from the first floor claims that someone shot at the truck, in the video it seems that the passenger is the one who shoots into the water to intimidate the man with the stick. "
They shot themselves, stupid
," says one male voice
The man with the stick, who was wearing a black t-shirt, then walks away and hits the cane against the metal plate, almost with resignation.
The entire sequence occurred about twenty blocks from the place where yesterday morning the body of a man appeared floating, in Havana and Coronel Luna, five blocks from the Alsina Bridge.
The body was there for several hours until it could be removed by civil defense.
In Valentín Alsina, about six blocks from the place where the body appeared, a 14-year-old boy was electrocuted when he touched a light pole that gave him a shock, while walking down another completely flooded street.
