KABUL, Afghanistan, Shawwal 29, 1432, Sep 27, 2011, SPA - A suicide bomber rammed a car packed with explosives into a police truck outside a bakery in southern Afghanistan on Tuesday, killing at least two civilians, officials said. The attacker apparently was waiting in the car at the gates of the police headquarters just outside a bakery where officers regularly buy bread in the morning in Lashkar Gah, the main city in Helmand province, said provincial Police Chief Kamaluddin Sherzai. The bomber slammed the car into a police truck that was parked at the shop, triggering the car's explosives, he said. Two civilians were killed in the blast - one man and one young boy, said provincial government spokesman Daoud Ahmadi. Another 26 people were wounded, including 10 police officers and six children, he was quoted as saying by the Associated Press. --SPA 11:18 LOCAL TIME 08:18 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/928952
