At least four people were killed by an explosion in the Colombian town of Cartagena del Chaira in the department of Caqueta, the Colombian government reported on Friday.
"At approximately 10:30 this morning, there was an explosion, a terrorist attack against a police patrol that was circulating in the sector. The victims were civilians traveling in a motorcar and on motorcycles," Mayor of Cartagena del Chaira Edilberto Molina Hernandez said.
"The cowardly attack which claimed the lives of four people, including a minor, is an attack against all Colombians," Defense Minister Diego Molano posted on Twitter.
A driver, a mother and a three-year-old child died, while a 57-year-old woman later died from her injuries.
Two people who sustained injuries were taken to nearby medical centers, according to authorities.
