SAMARRA, Iraq (Reuters) - A car bomb exploded in the volatile Iraqi town of Samarra Saturday, killing at least two Iraqis and wounding 33 people, U.S. soldiers at the scene said.
The blast, outside the town council building and close to the main police headquarters, scattered wrecked cars and broken glass across a wide area in central Samarra, which lies in the "Sunni triangle" 100 km (62 miles) north of Baghdad.
Captain Jennifer Knight of the 720th Military Police Battalion told Reuters at the scene that two people had been killed and 33 wounded. She said seven of the wounded were U.S. soldiers working on civil affairs in the town who were hit by flying glass. Their wounds were not serious, she said.
Guerrillas have regularly targeted Iraqi police, often in car bomb strikes on police stations. Other Iraqis seen as cooperating with U.S.-led occupation forces have also been regularly attacked.
