MOSUL, Iraq, March 9 (UPI) -- Two people were killed Sunday in Mosul, Iraq, when a car bomb went off near a passing army patrol, police say.
Police said the blast missed the soldiers but killed two others and injured five more, CNN reported.
The city, which is nearly 260 miles north of Baghdad, also was the site of increased insurgent violence Friday. CNN said five security force members were killed in Mosul that day when a car bombing took place at a local police station. That suicide attack left 17 others injured.
Also Friday, a police officer's home apparently was targeted by a bomber. No casualties were inflicted by an initial blast, but a second roadside bomb detonated nearby when others responded, killing one person and injuring 14 others, CNN said.
