| Security at the Olympics is to be stepped up after a media bus was damaged in transit between Rios Deodoro zone and the main transport mall at the Olympic Park.Two windows were smashed as the bus travelled between the two venues at 7:30 p.m. local time, with about a dozen media personnel on board.Mario Andrada, the chief spokesman for Rio 2016s organising committee, said: We dont know yet if the bus was shot, or it was a stone.A retired U.S. Air Force captain who now writes about womens basketball said she was certain it was gunfire.Britains Press Association on Wednesday quoted Lee Michaelson, who was on the bus Tuesday, as saying that she instinctively hit the floor when she heard the sound of gunfire and hollered to the others ... `Get down! Get down! We are taking fire.I know what a gun sounds like, she said. It was the sound before I ever saw the glass (shatter) or anything.Andrada said three of the 12 journalists on the bus suffered minor injuries.The International Olympic Committee said security forces are investigating the incident.An IOC statement read: We are aware that a media bus travelling from Deodoro to Barra on the Transcarioca had two windows broken by objects coming from the surrounding area.The security authorities are now investigating the incident and we await their report before making further comment.A statement from the Rio Olympic Games organising committee (ROCOG) read: According to the drivers report, the media transport bus left the Youth Arena in Deodoro at around 1930 this evening, Tuesday August 9, travelling towards the Olympic Park.When on the expressway Transolimpica, near Curicica, the driver heard a noise from inside the bus which he thought was photography equipment falling down.Immediately, he looked in the rear-view mirror and noticed that the passengers were lying on the ground. He continued to drive for a few metres until he saw a police car and stopped. At this time, he realised that two windows on the same side of the bus were broken.The driver will provide a statement to police this evening accompanied by a security manager of the Organising Committee of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.Also tonight the bus will be subjected to an official inspection by the police. Preliminary results will be released as they become available.The area defense general co-ordinator (CGDA) of the army and the military police informed that patrols are being increased in the area.A Press Association photographer, travelling on the bus at the time of the incident, said: We were travelling from the hockey venue to the main press centre. I was sitting at the back. There was a popping, cracking noise.The bus didnt come to a stop but paused. Everyone was on the floor so I got on the floor as well. The bus driver stopped the bus about half a minute afterwards. People started shouting just keep going. After a couple of minutes we had a police escort.A few minutes later the bus pulled over on the motorway and the driver spoke to the police. Then we all got back on the bus and came back to the main transport mall. There were minor injuries from glass shards but nobody was seriously hurt.There were pierced holes in the glass when it happened. The two windows did not shatter immediately but one of them shattered as we drove along the motorway. That is when the driver pulled over and talked to a policeman.The incident on Tuesday is the latest of several at the Games. On Saturday, a bullet flew through the side of the media work room at Deodoro.It was confirmed Monday by Andrada that the bullet was fired at a security camera on a police blimp from one of the Brazilian citys favelas and the international equestrian media were not the intended target.PA Sport contributed to this report.?

First off, the fans ripped the Cubbies introduction of a fuzzy new kid-friendly mascot named "Clark". As the Boston Red Sox made a trade to help their rotation, their bullpen took another hit.Junichi Tazawa, one of the American Leagues most reliable setup men over the past few years, went on the 15-day disabled list Thursday with a right shoulder impingement. The move, retroactive to July 4, comes three days after closer Craig Kimbrel underwent surgery on his left knee that is expected to sideline him for three to six weeks.Tazawa has a 3.62 ERA in 35 appearances. He hasnt pitched since July 3, complaining last week of shoulder fatigue, an issue that caused him to be shut down for the final month of last season. Since 2013, Tazawa has worked 222 1/3 innings, 12th most among American League relievers.With Kimbrel and Tazawa sidelined, Koji Uehara and newly acquired Brad Ziegler are the most trustworthy late-inning options for Red Sox manager John Farrell, although right-handders Matt Barnes (2.dddddddddddd93 ERA, 43 strikeouts in 43 innings) and Heath Hembree (2.00 ERA, 35 strikeouts in 36 innings) have had breakout seasons and are worthy of higher-leverage roles.The Red Sox have made four trades within the past week, including a move Thursday night to acquire All-Star lefty Drew Pomeranz from the San Diego Padres for 18-year-old top pitching prospect Anderson Espinoza. After president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski acquired Ziegler last Saturday, Dombrowski said the bullpen was pretty well set.Tazawas injury might change things, although hes eligible to come off the disabled list as soon as July 19.To fill Tazawas spot on the roster, the Red Sox recalled right-hander William Cuevas from Triple-A Pawtucket.
