Question: From what I can tell Jason went to the American embassy in Zurich, couldn't be bothered waiting in a queue, went through a door and got shouted at to stop, then ran up some stairs and climbed down the wall and escaped. What was his original purpose for going to the embassy?

Answer: The reason he didn't have to wait in "the queue" is on the sign he passes as he enters. He enters the American Citizen door because no one is in line. His passport was a "fastpass" into the embassy to avoid the police. The reason police were looking for him was because of what happened at the park. Police were looking for him. The guy at the bank called the CIA. So... the original purpose of entering the embassy was to avoid the Switzerland police. The shouting was to detain him, probably to question him about the park.
Answer: A man in the bank had called the police.

Answer: To avoid the local police. They were following him and he had an American passport, so it was the quickest way to escape.

He was probably being wanted for the assault on the 2 police officers while he was sleeping in the park the night before.
