Suicide Bomber Kills 3 in Cameroon

by Associated Press

   A local official says a suicide bomber has detonated explosives at a
   Cameroon market near the border with Nigeria, killing at least three
   people and wounding at least 11 others.

   Cameroon's Far North region governor, Midjiyawa Bakary, says a young
   man suspected of being from Nigeria detonated his explosives Sunday
   morning after riding into the market in Mora on his motorcycle at high
   speed.

   The governor says three people were seriously injured and rushed to the
   local hospital before being transferred to another town for specialized
   care.

   No one has claimed responsibility.
