A bus earlier this week left Guayaquil in route to Quito with 40 passengers. Just outside of Guayaquil, gunmen who feigned as passengers took over the bus. Over a three hour period according to passengers, they were beaten and robbed. Also a child who appeared to be about six assisted in helping the gunmen locate cellphones of the victims and other valuables. http://latinamericacurrentevents.com/ecuador-year-child-assault-bus-gunmen/
