PLD mob sacks hospital

A mob of PLD members sacked offices of the Luis E. Aybar Hospital’s Center for Gastroenterology in Santo Domingo in demand for employment. According to Carmen Baez, the director for the hospital, the PLD mob wrecked the furniture of her reception area and scared the wits out of her secretary, as they demanded to be hired. Today, police and military units are providing security for the hospital that was built and donated to the Dominican Republic by Japan, thirteen years ago. According to sources, the workplace has returned to normal under the heavy security. Dr. Baez told Listin Diario reporters that she was not harmed in the small riot only because some of her doctors took her out a back door during the hottest part of the scene. She said that she cannot understand the attitude of the party members since she has been receiving their representatives ever since she was put into office two months ago.
