Outbreak of violence and protests/ State of emergency declared in Peru's

Peru's new government has declared a state of emergency in the capital Lima in response to ongoing violence caused by organized crime, which has led to mass protests.

"We will announce the decision to declare a state of emergency, at least in the Lima region," interim government head Ernesto Alvarez told the press after a cabinet meeting.

Hundreds of people were injured and one was shot dead by a police officer on Wednesday after demonstrations erupted into street clashes near the Congress building in the capital. /CNA
