Minibus explosion not the work of a suicide bomber, Turkish officials say

A Turkish official said Sunday that a package bomb -- not a suicide attacker -- caused an explosion that killed five people a day earlier at a popular resort on the Aegean Coast.

Authorities stepped up security at resorts to try to prevent a repeat of Saturday's blast, whose victims included a British woman and an Irish teenager, officials said.

Bomb experts completed on-scene investigations in the beach town of Kusadasi and returned to Ankara, the Turkish capital, to evaluate the evidence, Aydin province Governor Mustafa Malay said.
