Suicide bomber in Chechnya kills 4 policemen

 

GROZNY - A suicide bomber blew himself up Sunday in the capital of Chechnya, killing four police officers and wounding at least three others as the city celebrated the birthday of its pro-Kremlin leader, officials said.

 

The Chechen leader, Ramzan Kadyrov, told journalists at the scene that the suicide bomber was wearing a police uniform and presented police identification when he tried to go through metal detectors set up outside a concert hall in Grozny, the capital. When police moved to stop him, he detonated the explosives, Kadyrov said.

 

Several ambulances were seen leaving the site, which was blocked off by police.
