Former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet died at 91, one week after suffering a heart attack. The ailing former strongman was rushed to the hospital last Sunday while under house arrest in connection with human rights charges during his 1973-1990 regime. An angioplasty cleared a blocked artery that same day, and hospital officials had said he appeared to be improving before they announced his death Sunday.
Stable but slowly deteriorating, eh?
