Baghdad: A bomb in the city of Fallujah has killed four police and one civilian, Iraqi police said.
A police official said 15 people were injured in the blast outside a bank in the one-time Sunni insurgent stronghold west of Baghdad. The injured included an Iraqi television cameraman.
Police and a crowd gathered in the bank area after an explosion at 6:30 a.m. Wednesday. A second blast caused the casualties.
The police official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media.
