Five civilians killed in Kabul suicide attack
KABUL - At least four people were killed and six wounded when a suicide attacker targeted a US-led convoy in western Kabul on Saturday. The attack took place early Saturday morning, in the Company area, in Kabul’s 5th District, when a suicide attacker driving a taxi rammed the explosive-filled vehicle into a NATO convoy, killing himself and four civilians, Alishah Paktiawal, Chief of the Criminal Branch of Kabul Police, told Deutsche Presse-Agentur dpa. Paktiawal said that five civilians and a US soldier were wounded in the blast.

Following the attack a US soldier riding in a Humvee vehicle opened ‘indiscriminate fire’ on the crowd, killing one civilian and wounding three, Paktiawal said. Dozens of local people then gathered and wanted to carry out a demonstration but the police intervened and dispersed them, he added.
I doubt that -- the dead 'civvie' very likely had a weapon in his hands. Til he dropped it 'cause he was dead.
