Dude!!!
Masked gunmen burst onto the set of a live broadcast by a public TV channel in Ecuador on Tuesday.
The men broke into studios of the TC Television network in the port city of Guayaquil, shouting that they had "bombs." Noises similar to gunshots could be heard.
It comes a day after Ecuador's new president declared a 60-day state of emergency following the apparent escape of a top drug gang leader from prison.
Ecuador saw a spate of nationwide attacks within hours of Noboa's Monday announcement, including one in which gangsters took several police officers hostage.
After abducting the officers, criminals released a chilling video in which one was forced to read out a message addressed to the president.
"You declared war, you will get war," the terrified officer read. "You declared a state of emergency. We declare police, civilians and soldiers to be the spoils of war."
