Bogota - A car bomb exploded in the city of Medellin on Monday, injuring two pregnant women, a Catholic priest and five other people in an early morning attack authorities blamed on Marxist rebels.

Without providing evidence, police said urban guerrillas with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) left a car packed with explosives in a parking lot in the centre of the city, about 250km north-west of Colombia's capital, Bogota.

It was the second blast in a major urban centre since Saturday night, when another car bomb - also blamed on the FARC - injured seven people in the south-western city of Cali.
