[...] The man tried to snatch Vega Cisneros' cell phone with which she was recording aspects of the story on the street. In his attempt to take away her work equipment, he injured the hand with which the reporter was holding the device.

Previously, on Feb. 4, reporter Alfonso Hernández, shared on social media that he had become 'part of the statistics,' as he denounced that officers of the municipal police beat him and assaulted him.

Another case occurred on Feb. 2, during a student rally from the [teachers' school] Normal Rural Mactumactzá in the central park of Tuxtla Gutiérrez, where an aggression was documented against the reporter Rodolfo Flores, a member of the local newspaper Cuarto Poder, by an [individual named] Ángel 'N', who allegedly belonged to the National Guard in San Cristóbal de Las Casas.
