Police were attacked with hand grenades in two separate nearly simultaneous attacks in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon leaving a toll of four wounded, say Mexican press reports.

Two state police vehicles were attacked at about 2330 hrs overnight near the intersection of calles Lincoln and Rangel Frias in northeast Monterrey.

Aboard were two agents from Agencia Estatal de Investigaciones attack (AEI) and two agents from Seguridad Publica del Estado (SPE), all of whom were wounded in the explosion. The grenade was thrown from atop the Rangel Frias bridge.

Meanwhile, a police station on calle Durazno in the Valle Verde district was attacked by armed suspects using a hand grenade. The attack took place when the bomb was dropped in an alley next to the station.

No one was reported hurt and damage from the explosion was limited to a damaged wall of the building and an adjacent residence.

Elements of the Mexican Army were reported to be close by when the attack was made.
