Colombia: Protesters gather in Cali Sept. 13
Protesters gather outside the Municipal Administrative Center on Avenida 2 Note in Cali, Colombia, on Sept. 13.
Protesters have gathered in the San Pedro area of Cali on Sept. 13 to make several labor-related demands. Demonstrators are blocking the entrance to the Municipal Administrative Center (Centro Administrativo Municipal, CAM) on Avenida 2 Norte with dump trucks.
Traffic disruptions in the area will likely continue in the coming hours. Authorities will likely deploy to monitor demonstrations. Clashes are possible if security forces try to disperse protesters forcibly.
Avoid the protests as a precaution. Plan on transit disruptions and seek alternative routes to circumvent the impacted area. Do not attempt to pass through protester-erected roadblocks. Wait for the police to dismantle them before proceeding. Heed instructions from authorities.
