Three Explosives Found Near Prison

Three explosive devices containing one-half pound of TNT were found this morning in the foundation of an electrical tower near the National Prison, according to Orlin Cerrato, spokesman for the Ministry of Security.

“The National Police has been tracking this case, and a special bomb squad was up in the morning to do the finding.” The officer explained that, “the devices failed to detonate because they were provided with a safety fuse, and it is an area where it is very windy, which did not allow these people to achieve their objectives.

This morning the Chief of Joint Staff of the Armed Forces, General Romeo Vasquez, said more than 40 bomb attacks occurred before Sunday’s elections in Honduras.
