Puerto Rico News- Egg Launch aganist Luis Fortuno

Sep. 29 2009 Cynthia Lopez Caban
FAJARDO - Gov. Luis Fortuño abruptly ended a news conference at the boat terminal of the municipality where a citizen threw an egg that hit a sign that read "Investment $ 8.2 million.
Fortuño came to the area this morning to announce a project to improve the boats that carry passengers to the island municipalities of Vieques and Culebra.
Just when the president said that the vessels be repaired in Fajardo to create new jobs in the municipality, a protester stood up, yelled "hypocrite, how dare you talk about jobs if you're removing the" and threw an egg.
Fortuño, who, as he spoke he opened a bottle of water because he had drowned, ducked. The projectile struck the sign for the government announcement.
Police officers spoke with the protester, identified as Robert Garcia Diaz, 44, and dragged him to a formal car. Meanwhile, the citizens shouted "I will kill" and "Fortuño will kill you." When asked the name, shouted "I am a regular guy like you."
Fortuño left the area in a hurry. "I have nothing to say, because you the press decided to let me alone," he complained.
Meanwhile, and before the eyes of dozens of police, protesters had arrived in the area chanting "The people demand justice" and "coward Fortuño.
Garcia Diaz was transported to the barracks of Fajardo, where they evaluated the filing of charges against him.
His wife, identified as Jovina Rodriguez said it was fine but complained of having received a kick and had marks on his wrists from the handcuffs. Rodriguez said her husband is a former employee of the Roosevelt Roads naval base. He saw the incident as a possible act of desperation on the part of the man who has five children.
Attorney Luis Pinto Andino assume the legal representation of the demonstrator, but while the judicial robes was shipped from the metropolitan area to Fajardo, Lic Hilda Figueroa arrived at headquarters to ensure that you are not violate constitutional rights.
Meanwhile, a police officer involved in the investigation came up with the cartel's headquarters hit by the egg that gave Garcia Diaz.
Fortuño reacts
After being hit with an egg by a protester, the Governor said he would give space for workers to speak out, but violence is not an option.
Fortuño said that everyone can differ from the thousands of layoffs, but passively and respectfully.
As for the protest in front of La Fortaleza, the President said that although it is a legitimate right to conduct demonstrations, union leaders can not interfere with regular work at the Palacio de Santa Catalina as they did with Camp Dignity and Shame.
Union leaders were violently removed from the area by officers from the Tactical Operations Division.

My Response:

This article was about how a protester that had trew an egg at the Governor Luis Fortuno. The protester was Robert Garcia Diaz. Before Garcia Diaz threw the egg at the Gov. he said " hypocrite, how dare you talk about jobs if your removing the.. ". Garcia Diaz was outraged by the fact that the Governor was making the people of Puerto Rico pay for a boat terminal, that would in turn make new jobs to take away from the current layoff issue.
