Suicide bomber kills dignitaries in Baghdad market


    BAGHDAD (Reuters) - A suicide bomber killed a number of people in western Baghdad on Tuesday after infiltrating a group of tribal leaders and security officials touring a market, a security official said.

    Major-General Qassim Moussawi said officials were still trying to determine how many people were killed or wounded.

    The dignitaries, who included Iraqi army officers, were touring a crowded market in Abu Ghraib.
