A large car bomb placed by the Basque guerrilla group ETA in the northern city of Logrono failed to explode late Sunday. The group telephoned a warning to a Basque newspaper at 11 p.m. and 30 minutes later a small explosion was heard in a car park in the city, the capital of the Rioja region adjacent to the Basque country. ETA car bomb fails to explode in Spain "It's been a very intense night of vigilance," the town's mayor Tomas Santos told State radio on Monday. "It was a major charge of explosives placed in the town centre -- it could have been a tragedy." News media quoted police sources as saying there could have been between 220 and 330 lbs of explosives in the bomb. "The device has now been deactivated," Santos confirmed. Hours earlier, the separatist group vowed to keep up bomb attacks against the Spanish state, saying last year's unsuccessful peace talks showed there was no point in negotiating with the Socialist government. In the Basque city of San Sebastian, police broke up a rally on Sunday in support of ETA prisoners and arrested the leader of an amnesty movement and eight other people while several people were hurt in clashes.
