17 gunnies bumped off in Columbia
Army troops attacked leftist rebels inside a former rebel safe haven in southern Colombia on Saturday, killing 17 guerrillas, the army said. Soldiers had been pursuing rebels of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, in the region for days after the guerrillas set up a roadblock and detained buses and 42 people, the army's 4th division commander Gen. Arcesio Barrero told local radio.
