MONTEVIDEO, June 5 (Reuters) - Consumer prices in Uruguay rose 0.13 percent in May from the prior month, government data showed on Monday, bringing the country's 12-month inflation rate to 5.58 percent.
That marked the third straight month in which inflation was in the central bank's target range of 3 to 7 percent. The 12-month rate entered the target range for the first time since 2010 in March.
