Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.
I was joking the other day about how dangerous it is in someplaces to go outside (http://www.bikeforums.net//showthread.php?t=483663) on election night. This year was not an exeption in my hometown. A group of people were celebrating outside because their party won. Some neighbors, members of the losing party, called the police to report the disturbance (in their right tho). The police came in and the situation got out of hand somehow. The end result, a 19 y/o male was beaten to death by the police.
My consolences to the family. :(

It happened in PR, Yauco City to be exact. Here (http://www.elnuevodia.com/diario/noticia/puertoricohoy/noticias/que_los_metan_presos/486473) is the only link I found, from one of the local newspapers (in spanish tho).
