Police Helicopter SHOT DOWN

Authorities have secured the city’s entrances and exits, the mayor’s office said, and temporarily restricted the movement of trucks.

Mayor Alejandro Eder said emergency services were treating the injured. He announced a reward of 400 million pesos (just under $100,000) for anyone providing information about the attack.

So far, no one has claimed responsibility for the explosion.

In June, a series of attacks in Cali and other towns in Cauca left at least seven dead and 28 injured. At the time, the prosecutor’s office said the attacks were in response to the 2022 death of a local leader of the FARC dissidents.

An attack on a Colombian National Police helicopter and a suspected car bombing near a military air base killed at least 19 people Thursday in what Colombian authorities are describing as terrorist acts.

 

It’s unclear whether the events are related.
