 KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - A suicide car bomber blew himself up near a convoy of U.S. troops on the outskirts of Kabul Tuesday, leaving up to seven civilians and three soldiers wounded, officials said. The Taliban claimed responsibility.
In the aftermath of the attack, U.S. troops opened fire on police arriving at the scene, killing one policeman, officials and a witness said.
The bomber targeted the convoy outside Camp Phoenix, a U.S. base on Jalalabad road — an area frequently targeted by suicide bomb attacks.
