Gunmen Kill Seven In Nightclub Attack

Compiled From Wire Services

Gunmen killed seven people and wounded four early Saturday in an attack on a nightclub just outside the western city of Cali believed related to prostitution, police said.

The five gunmen opened fire with .38-caliber revolvers and 7.65mm pistols on people who had been dancing at the Reservados Dalina club in the city’s Santa Monica district and fled in an automobile, said Cali’s police chief, Col. Benigno Pineros.

Early indications suggested the killings were related to a refusal to pay commissions related to prostitution, Pineros said by telephone.
