#SOSCuba protesters outnumber FHP troopers on Okeechobee Road near Hialeah
MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. – Hansel Hernandez, a Miami-Dade County resident, said he decided to spend his Tuesday evening with a crowd of #SOSCuba protesters on Okeechobee Road near Hialeah because of the urgency of the situation.
Neither the rain nor the Florida Highway Patrol troopers nearby dissuaded him from joining the demonstration. He said they were disrupting traffic to help deliver the message that Cuban protesters on the communist island risked their lives for Sunday.
“We need this regime to be gone. People are dying. Kids are out in the street protesting. They are getting beaten by the Cuban regime,” Hernandez said.
