Car bomb hits Colombia day after new president sworn in

A car bomb exploded at a toll plaza on the Pan-American Highway in southwestern Colombia on Saturday, a day after Abelardo de la Espriella was inaugurated as president. The army blamed two FARC dissident groups for the attack, which injured two security guards. The new conservative president has vowed a hardline crackdown on armed groups.
