Suicide Car Bombers Kill 16 People in Iraq

Three suicide car bombers targeted Iraqi and U.S. security patrols Sunday, killing 16 people in the latest surge of suicide attacks after days of intense and incessant violence.

The first suicide attack killed two policemen and one civilian in the eastern New Baghdad neighborhood of the capital, police 1st Lt. Mohammed Jasim said. The attack also wounded seven policemen, some seriously, and one other civilian.

About an hour later a second suicide car bomber exploded near a police convoy near the Bay'a bus station in southern Baghdad, killing three police commandos and four civilians, Capt. Talib Thamir said. Three civilians were also injured in that blast.

A third suicide car bomb missed a U.S. convoy but struck two minibuses, killing six civilians in Mahmoudiya, a troubled town about 20 miles south of Baghdad, police Capt. Rashid al-Samarie said. Nine others were also wounded in the attack.
