Car explodes outside police station in Kenyan capital


    NAIROBI (Reuters) - A car exploded outside a police station in a poor neighbourhood of the Kenyan capital Nairobi on Wednesday, causing casualties, a Reuters witness said.

    The mangled wreckage of a car lay outside the station in Pangani, near an area of the city targeted in past bomb and grenade attacks that police say Somali militants and their sympathisers carried out.
