Three killed in rebel attacks on Baghdad police
Insurgents targeted Iraqi security forces today in Baghdad, gunning down a neighbourhood police chief and hitting a patrol with a roadside bomb in attacks that left three people dead and at least five injured.
Gunmen opened fire on a car carrying police Col. Abdul Karim Fahad Abbass as he headed to work in the sprawling south-eastern Doura quarter, killing the neighbourhood station chief and his driver, said Capt. Falah al-Muhimadawi.
