서울경찰청, 美대사관저 경비 강화... 검찰, 대사관 침입 학생 17명 중 7명 구속영창 청구
South Korea is beefing up security at the U.S. ambassador's residence in Seoul after a break-in Friday by college protesters.
The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency says it's dispatching 80 more officers to the area.
It's also setting up a hotline with the U.S. embassy... and will enable officers to be deployed more quickly in emergencies.
The police have requested arrest warrants for 7 of the 17 students who used ladders Friday to climb over the wall of the ambassador's residence.
They were protesting Washington's demand that Seoul pay more for the cost of stationing U.S. troops in South Korea.
