concerning events--

9 years ago

I've received this from a dear friend---Panamanian by birth---who experienced one of these events himself.--I do not like to share negativity but this is an important subject.--The message came to me in Spanish and I am copying it verbatim
Lo recibí de una amiga.
Querida familia y amigos, quiero compartir con Uds la desagradable experiencia q viví anoche, estaba con un grupo de 10 amigos cenando en el restaurante Peruano Brujas de Cachiche en Obarrio y entraron 4 hombres armados con pistolas y cuchillos. Nos tiraron al piso y de mesa en mesa nos robaron todo, yo logre meterme en mi pantalón mis tarjetas de crédito, una pulsera y el celular, se llevaron mi cartera, mis lentes y un monedero con 105 dlrs. Y mi reloj. A Juan le llevaronA Juan le llevaron su cartera con todos los documentos y 370 dlrs, a todos los q estábamos en la mesa nos desvalijaron, al igual que todos los otros clientes y los meseros y la caja del restaurante llevaron un carro de valet parking. Ha sido una experiencia aterradora q no se la deseo a nadie, un susto muy grande, la policía llego bastante rápido pero no pudieron hacer nada. Tuvimos q ir a la DIJ a levantar la denuncia y nos dijeron que es el 4o restaurante q roban de la misma manera en un mes, q ellos "creen" q ya los tienen ubicados. Afortunadamente el restaurante tiene seguro y esperamos poder recuperar algo por parte de ellos.
Les comparto esto ya que son cosas que uno no piensa que le puedan pasar y desafortunadamente es una realidad. También se llevaron mis llaves. Bueno hay que darle gracias a Dios que nadie recibió ninguna herida grave, golpearon a un mesero y a los cocineros para evitar q estos los atacaran con los cuchillos de la cocina. El rest. Tiene cámaras y claramente los podrán identificar. Hoy y siempre estaré agradecida con Dios por darnos otra oportunidad de vida.
