In Bogota, Columbia a suitcase bomb exploded were many children were celebrating Halloween. This explosion injured 37 people and killed two of the bombers. The two bombers were reported to be apart of the drug-trafficking band. The two bombers were seen carrying a suitcase on a bicycle two blocks from where the explosion happened. Two boys suffered from head injuries and were rushed to the hospital. Many people say that the bomb was intended for the police station which was a block away from where the actual explosion occurred, but because the bomb didn't go off there it is said that the bomb went off prematurely.
This article was written by the associated press and was published on November 1, 2012. I think that this article has a negative impact on readers because off all the tragedy this caused. Many people were injured and two people were killed. I already knew that this article had to do with a bombing or explosion because of the title of the article.

That's so sad that all of those innocent people were injured. It's good that the bomb went off prematurely since it probably would've hurt more people at the police station.
