Suicide bomber kills four in central Somalia: police

MOGADISHU: At least four people were killed Monday when a suicide bomber blew himself up in his car in an attack aimed at a senior police officer in Somalia's central Galkayo region, police said.

"There are at least five people dead, including the bomber," said police officer Mohamed Abdullahi in the town, which straddles the border between the northern breakaway state of Puntland and the self-proclaimed region of Galmudug.
