Yusmary Chacon Lamoth was filming Yoanny Beltran Gamboa who was walking with a poster on Avenida Camilo Cienfuegos. The sign said "Police stole my phone and my bicycle." When he walked by the Municipal Assembly of People's Power, a group of officials approached him with baseball bats and began to hit him. When Yusmary saw it, she started to shout "Stop the abuse!", "Long live human rights!", "Freedom for the people of Cuba!" and also she was hit in the right cheekbone with a punch by the official of the Communist Party of Cuba Ernesto Peña Vera.
