Chile: Quake death toll of 800 could still rise

None

The death toll from Chile's devastating 8.8-magnitude earthquake that hit over the weekend could increase in coming days, President Michelle Bachelet said Wednesday.

 

Bachelet told a local radio station more people than the some 800 now counted could have died in the temblor and tsunami waves that hit the coastline after the quake. (Reuters)
