Bomb claims one life, wounds 6 in Zamboanga City

An improvised explosive device (IED) detonated Wednesday in Zamboanga City, killing one civilian and injuring six others. The IED was one of three explosives the police were trying to diffuse, but the yet-unidentified man who died purportedly tinkered with the package, which blew up. Investigators are determining who the perpetrators are and how they were able to slip through the city’s security measures. — ELR, GMA News
