On July 16, 1992, the Shining Path detonated a 400-kilogram (880 lb) car bomb in the middle of Tarata Street, a residential thoroughfare located in the business area of central Miraflores, a district of Lima, Peru. The blast was one of the deadliest attacks carried by the group during the country's internal conflict, and was the beginning of a week-long campaign against the government, which caused 40 deaths and shut down much of the capital. The attack's intended target was an office building operated by the Banco de Crédito del Perú at the street's intersection with José Larco Avenue, one of the district's most important roads and a popular gathering point for locals. After failing to park the explosive-laden vehicle next to the building, the adjacent street was targeted instead. The abandoned vehicle detonated at 9:20 p.m. PET (EDT), killing 25, with 155 to 250 others injured and 5 missing.
