Rio Games organisers have stepped up police patrols around the Olympic Park after a bus was hit by what security officials said were stones hurled by vandals. Adding to concerns over Games security, organisers said they were investigating reports of a second bullet discovered at the equestrian centre. Correa said police would step up patrols along roads linking the Olympic Park with the Deodoro stadium where basketball events are being held. Passengers on the bus reported hearing the sound of gun shots before two windows shattered as it passed just north of Olympic Park on Tuesday night. In relation to the bus attack, one of the passengers said she was unsatisfied with authorities' explanations.
