    Bomb blast in downtown Santiago de Chile injures five people

    The blast occurred around midday near the busy Plaza Italia in central Santiago, and was heard several blocks away. Police sealed off the immediate area.

    A blast at a bus stop that wounded five people in the centre of the Chilean capital on Friday was described as a “terrorist act” by the government. A Venezuelan couple was hospitalized with facial and leg injuries after handling a package containing the device at the bus stop on the busy Vicuna Mackenna Avenue, authorities said.
