In central Colombia...the deadly Nevado del Ruiz volcano erupted...spewing lava and gases 6 miles into the air...forcing the evacuation of 2,300 people.
The area alert was raised from yellow...to red.
3 nearby airports were closed.
Nevado del Ruiz grew active again...about a month ago.

Some have criticized President Santos because there was scant mention of the eruption on national media...absorbed covering football matches.
