Bombing at Iraq Crime Lab Kills 2 Policemen

   VOA News 16 February 2010

   Iraqi  officials say a car bomb exploded outside a police crime lab in
   the northern city of Mosul Tuesday, killing two officers.
   At least seven other people were wounded in the morning attack.
   In  a  similar  incident  last month, a suicide bomber struck a police
   forensics  lab in Baghdad, killing 22 people.  A group affiliated with
   al-Qaida,  the  Islamic State of Iraq, claimed responsibility for that
   attack.
   Also  in  Mosul  Tuesday, a police official says gunmen opened fire on
   two Christian university students, killing one and wounding another.
   On  Monday,  three  bombings in western Iraq left one person dead, and
   wounded at least four others.
