KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (Reuters) - A suicide bomber killed at least six police officers in southern Afghanistan on Monday, a police official said.
The bomber was on foot and detonated explosives attached to his body in a group of officers outside the main police headquarters in Lashkar Gah, the provincial capital of Helmand, he said.
