Chilean Volcano Erupts for Third Time

The Calbuco volcano erupted again Thursday, sending dark bursts of ash and hot rock billowing two and a half miles into the air and prompting Chilean officials to order a new evacuation of nearby residents.
Thick clouds boiled out of 6,500-foot cone, bringing the threat of new, heavy ash fall over villagers struggling to clean up from two huge blasts last week. The surrounding area was evacuated after the volcano first erupted last Wednesday afternoon, but many people had begun to return to their ash-covered homes. . More than 4,500 people have been evacuated since the Calbuco roared back to life April 22, sending ash about 11 miles into the sky.
