Car bomb in Colombian capital injures at least 9
None
A car packed with at least 110 pounds (50 kilograms) of explosives blew up in an office district of Colombia's capital on Thursday, shattering windows and injuring at least nine people, police said. No deaths were reported.
Gen. Cesar Pinzon, the city's police chief, suggested leftist rebels could have set off the blast, but said authorities were not sure if the bomb was aimed at the station or another target. President Juan Manuel Santos hurried to the scene and branded the explosion "a terrorist act," saying it was meant to sow fear and create skepticism about the government. (AP)
