I am an american citizen living in Colombia, South America since January 2016. My income for that year was US$8.500, do I need to file income taxes?

No, you are not required to file a tax return.
However, you may consider doing so anyways. It will start the window to close the Statute of Limitations that the IRS can question you about that year, and it will reduce the chances that a thief will try to file a fake tax return in your name.
