Evo Morales says his car was shot at in assassination attempt

Evo Morales, the former Bolivian president, said on Sunday a car he was travelling in had been shot at in what he condemned as an attempt on his life.

A video he posted to social media appeared to show at least two bullet holes in the windscreen of a car in the front seat of which Morales was sitting.

In a statement, Morales's Movement for Socialism (Mas) party said men in black had fired on the vehicle when it passed by a military barracks. The party said it held President Luis Arce's government responsible.

Arce condemned violence in politics and pledged an investigation.
