It was reported that the official complaint detailed that the people that started the egg and fruit pelting were wearing the official badges or patches (the article was unclear) of employees of the mayor of the town. Also part of the official complaint, during the "chase" by the motorcycles, Venezualen police held up the diplomatic car on purpose, and facilited the chasers by holding traffic after the diplomatic car had escaped repeatedly to allow the chasers to catch up again. And the Venezuelan police escorting the convoy did not intervene to stop the incident, either during the 10 minutes they were being pelted, or during the chase. And it was not just a chase. The chasers were hitting the car and windows with fists and unknown objects during the chase. As for the US being in the wrong here, Gel, you forgot to mention that the US "threat" to curtail the freedom of movement of their ambassador came one day after after Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez threatened to expel U.S. Ambassador William Brownfield over the egg-pelting incident.
