BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — Local authorities fearful of more World Cup-related violence banned liquor sales on Tuesday in Bogota and other major Colombian cities. Some mayors also imposed game-day curfews for minors.

The mayor of the central city of Sogamoso, Miguel Angel Perez, told The Associated Press that he imposed an 8 p.m.-to-8 a.m. curfew for minors and an alcohol ban hoping to forestall a repeat of troubles that erupted Thursday after the Colombian team’s victory clinched it a place in the tournament’s second round.
