At least two journalists were injured by police during a protest on Thursday in Bogota, Colombia against government plans to decrease the education budget and change pensions.

A video, which was filmed at around 4 pm local time shows chaotic scenes as police clear protesters from Bolivar Square with batons and tear gas.

Then, a slowed-down section of the same clip shows a riot police officer approach a retreating man from behind and hit him over the head with the handle of his baton

Moments later, as the dazed man stumbles away from the square for treatment, he confirms to the filmer that he is a member of the press

Also waiting for treatment is another journalist with a press pass hanging around his neck who has blood seeping from his mouth and leg.

Students, unions, professors and other sectors took to the streets of Bogotá on April 25 to demand that President Iván Duque fulfill his promises and ask him to stop the development plan.

The protest then turned into violence due to clashes between the police and some citizens who were repressed with tear gas.

Two journalists were attacked by the Bogota police. This is the exact moment when a journalist was hit by a member of the police.
