(CNN) -- A Yemeni national employed as a senior security official at the U.S. Embassy in Sanaa was shot dead Thursday on his way to work, interior ministry officials said.
The embassy has been in the news recently after crowds stormed it during protests.
Hundreds of protesters gathered in September in front of the embassy to protest the video "Innocence of Muslims," which maligns the Prophet Mohammed. The demonstration turned violent, and some protesters broke into the embassy in the capital city of Sanaa.
Clashes between security forces and demonstrators left at least four protesters dead and more than 30 people injured.
