Fourteen people were injured after a bomb exploded at Escuela Militar subway station in the Chilean capital of Santiago around 2 p.m.
A woman who works at the cleaning service for firm Metro S.A., who lost the fingers on her right hand, and a 35-year-old, who suffered abdominal trauma, were the most seriously injured.
Deputy Secretary of Interior Mahmud Aleuy confirmed that the two people suspected to have carried out the attack fled in a white Chevrolet, but there are also ongoing investigations of a second vehicle, a red Opel Corsa with two men inside.
