Bolivian police arrested the leader of an attempted coup, hours after the presidential palace in the capital La Paz was stormed by soldiers. Armoured vehicles and troops took up position on Murillo Square where key government buildings are located. The rebel military leader in charge, Gen Juan Jose Zuniga, said he wanted to "restructure democracy."
Zuniga added that while he respected President Luis Arce for now, there would be a change of government in Bolivia. President Arce condemned the coup attempt, calling on the public to "organise and mobilise in favour of democracy."
