Security Alert: Current Demonstrations near the U.S. Embassy
The U.S. Embassy is tracking ongoing protests outside the U.S. Embassy (Bogotá, Colombia) along Avenidas Esperanza and El Dorado. Clashes with police and violent demonstrations have been reported. The U.S. Embassy recommends that all personnel avoid the area of the Embassy at this time. U.S. Embassy is located at: Carrera 45 N. 24B-27 Bogota.
The protests do not appear to be specifically directed at the U.S. Embassy.
Supuestos jóvenes inconformes terminan siendo vándalos encapuchados. Además de causar aglomeración vandalizaaron estaciones, paraderos y comercios. Esto no es protesta legítima de ningún tipo. Es vandalismo organizado para beneficio político de extremistas que no vamos a permitir https://t.co/m30l76b406 pic.twitter.com/IPmZW4K4x3
