Bahrain bomb blast wounds policeman

Manama: Bahrain’s interior ministry says a homemade bomb has exploded just outside the capital, Manama, wounding a policeman.

The ministry says the blast happened Friday in the village of Daih. The same area was the scene of a bomb attack in March that killed three policemen.

An investigation into the blast is ongoing.

Anti-government elements increasingly have been using homemade bombs against security forces.
