| BAGHDAD — A car bomb exploded outside a Baghdad police station on Sunday, killing four police officers and wounding 12 other people. The blast at the station in the western Baghdad neighborhood of Amil occurred during a morning shift change when a motorist stopped in front of the main gate and detonated the car, said a police official. Elsewhere, an Iraqi Army soldier and 19 other people were wounded as part of a series of bombings across Iraq on Sunday, the police official said. One of the explosions occurred near City Hall in Mahmudiya, about 20 miles south of Baghdad, and wounded the City Council president and seven other employees, the authorities said. The seriousness of the injuries was not immediately clear. |
