The last theft was recorded this weekend, where several criminals took various belongings from the sports scene, which are necessary for the practice of athletes. Alvear is desperate and in dialogue with Blu Radio He indicated that he is afraid that an element that is vital for athletes will be stolen, so the administration had to put chains on the locks to prevent them from committing crimes.
“The truth is that one does not know whether to sit down and cry, it is not the first time that it has happened, they have entered the coliseum six times and this has been recorded since last year. The first thing we saw was the loss of my statue that we had on the stage. The tennis shoes have also been taken from the athletes to run and they have broken a plate in one of the offices. They have even taken away our sports equipment and even all the taps in the women’s bathrooms,” said the athlete.
In addition, the Olympic medalist said that around the site they have found weapons and a complex situation of begging, which has distanced citizens from the sports scene and to participate in the competition.
