Insurgents Continued Attacks Despite The Capture Of Saddam" , NYT
December 15, 2003
Explosion Kills 8 Iraqi Policemen
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Filed at 10:00 a.m. ET

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) -- A suicide bomber driving a four-wheel drive taxi killed eight Iraqi policemen in an attack Monday on a station in the capital's northern outskirts, their commander said.

Lt. Col. Ali Amer said 10 officers were injured in the blast in the northern Husainiyah district. Residents said at least five civilians, including a five-year-old girl, were also wounded by flying glass and debris.

The attacks came less than a day after U.S. officials announced the capture of Iraq's former leader Saddam Hussein.

U.S. officials in Baghdad have warned that the capture could lead to an increase in insurgents' attacks against troops of the U.S.-led coalition and their Iraqi allies.
