Hello, my name is Sandra Diaz, and this is a national report, so we regret to inform you that the new episode of Clueless will not appear until next friday. Anyways, only twenty minutes ago the Hotel Intercontinental in Santiago was bombed by an unknown person or group. The bomber entered the building through the Delivery Entrance disguised as a delivery man from Bamboo, the hot new Chinese Restaurant in Santiago, and proceeded to the twelfth floor and placed a bomb outside of a Honeyroom Suite, which exploded approximately five minutes later.

The bomb exploded at approximitely 7:32 Castillanos Northern Time, destroying everyone and everything on the 12th Floor of the 15 Story Building. The twelfth floor then collapsed, bringing floors twelve through fifteen crashing down, leveling the building at the 6th Floor. The death toll was approximately 892, about 429 of them International Travelers, and the toll is expected to rise over 1,000 as there was over three partys going on throughout the third floor and there are reports of frantic guests stampeding to the staircases where almost a hundred people where trampled. The government has yet to make a statement and the Fire and Police Department have begun searching through the wreckage for survivors and the entire army is on high alert.

We will be broadcasting through the night for updates on this heinous attack on Castillanos.
