Somalia: Gunmen storm hotel in capital after car bomb

HARGEISA -- Gunmen have fought their way into a hotel in the Somali capital after a suicide car bomb exploded at its gates, a police officer said Wednesday.

 

Capt. Mohamed Hussein said dozens of people, including lawmakers, were thought to have been staying at Mogadishu's Dayah hotel at the time of the morning attack.

 

Heavy gunfire could still be heard inside the hotel, Hussein said. He had no immediate information about casualties.
