(13 May 2015) Police fired tear gas at protesters in the Burundian capital amid reports of a coup attempt against President Pierre Nkurunziza.
An army general said on a private radio station that Nkurunziza's mandate was over.
However, whether the general had the support of the military was unclear.
Nkurunziza was in neighbouring Tanzania on Wednesday for a conference.
Before the radio announcement, protesters were in Bujumbura's streets to protest Nkurunziza's bid for a third term.
In some neighbourhoods, they battled past police in an effort to reach the downtown area.
During almost three weeks of unrest in which 15 people were killed, the military has been acting as buffer between police and protesters.
Army troops surrounded state radio on Wednesday, but it was not immediately clear to whom they were loyal.
