CORINTO, Colombia: Southwest Colombia was rocked by a string of explosions and gun attacks that left at least seven people dead on Tuesday, police said, in what appeared to be a coordinated attack designed to sow terror.
The attacks hit Cali -- the country´s third largest city -- and several nearby towns, targeting police stations and other municipal buildings. In the town of Corinto, an AFP journalist witnessed the tangled wreckage of a car that had exploded next to a scorched and badly damaged municipal building. The head of police Carlos Fernando Triana told La FM radio that assailants had attacked targets with car bombs, motorcycle bombs, rifle fire and a suspected drone.
