Volcano erupts in southern Chile, belching ash, smoke into sky

Smoke and lava spew from the Villarrica volcano, as seen from Pucon town, in the south of Santiago, April 22, 2015. Authorities have restricted access to the area within 5 kilometres (3 miles) of the crater and have put the area under an orange alert due to the volcano's heightened unrest and increased likelihood of eruption.

In March, volcano Villarrica, also in southern Chile, erupted in spectacular fashion, sending a plume of ash and lava high into the sky, but quickly subsided.
