CFE attacked with eggs, water balloons, and rotten tomatoes

 

Mexicali, October 4.- Members of the  Mexicali Civic Front  (FCM)  symbolically  closed  and  attacked  with  eggs ,  water balloons  and  rotten tomatoes  the facilities of the Federal Electricity Commission ( CFE ) due to the  power  outage  to the  aqueduct  that supplies  drinking water  to the coastal area of ​​the state.

Sergio Tamai and members of various civil organizations held a rally at the  CFE facilities , located on Lázaro Cárdenas and Benito Juárez boulevards, to  protest  against the  increase  in  domestic rates  for high-consumption  users  and against the insensitive officials who cut off the "power" to the aqueduct located in Rosita in Mexicali and which supplies  water  to Tijuana, Tecate and Rosarito Beach.

First, Tamai placed a padlock on the main door as a symbolic closure of the facilities. Later, they burned two piñatas, the first bearing the name "Insensitive CFE Officials in BC" and the second bearing a photograph of Manuel Bartlett, head of the federal agency.

After burning the piñatas, the FCM leader called in the "aquatic," "poultry," and "agricultural" squadrons to " bomb"  the CFE facilities  , for which they threw bags of eggs, spoiled tomatoes, and water balloons at the federal agency's windows.
