A suicide bomber Sunday killed 10 police and wounded 19 others who had gathered at the site of a failed car bomb attack on the U.S. military just north of Baghdad, while six people were killed by a wave of bombings in the nation's capital, Iraqi security sources said.
A car bomb blew up as a U.S. military convoy passed near Taji, the site of a major military installation north of Baghdad, but caused no damage to the Americans, according to an Iraqi security official. When police gathered by the site, a suicide bomber approached and blew himself up, the security official said.
The deadly attack was the third major bombing against police this month, following Thursday's double bombing outside the police headquarters in the northern city of Kirkuk that killed at least 27 people, most of them police, and a separate attack on police offices in Hilla south of Baghdad at the beginning of May.
