[Masked gunmen have broken into a
live television studio in Ecuador and
threatened terrified staff.
Employees were forced onto the floor during
the broadcast by the public television channel
TC in the city of Guayaquil before
the live feed cut out.
The attackers were later seen leaving the studio,
reportedly with several hostages.

Police have now made arrests.

A 60-day state of emergency began
in Ecuador on Monday after a
notorious gangster vanished from his prison cell.]
