Jordanian forces clash with gunmen during raid on hideout
None
State media reported that gunmen exchanged fire with Jordanian security forces Tuesday, killing a policeman during a raid on a suspected hideout for wanted men.
The raid took place in a central province of Jordan where two days earlier gunmen killed nine Jordanians and a Canadian tourist in shooting attacks claimed by the extremist Islamic State group.
The state news agency Petra said there was no connection between Tuesday's clash and Sunday's shootings, which were the bloodiest in Jordan in recent memory and raised new concerns about the rise of Islamic militancy in the pro-Western kingdom.
