More than 800 people were confirmed dead and hundreds more were missing after an enormous earthquake, followed by a tsunami, struck south-central Chile. The government declared a state of catastrophe in two regions and sent troops to keep order after looting triggered by a slow start to the aid operation.rnAuthorities in Guatemala arrested the national police chief and the head of the anti-narcotics unit on charges of aiding drug-traffickers. The police chief is the second to be sacked over drugs charges within six months.
