Bomb blast kills 5 at Police checkpoint in Damaturu
A suspected Boko Haram male suicide bomber detonated a bomb at a
checkpoint at Kano-Maiduguri road on the outskirts of Damaturu, Yobe
State this afternoon. Eyewitnesses say the blast occurred when police
officers at the checkpoint stopped a suspicious Toyota
Highlander heading for Maiduguri. As the driver of the bus and other
passengers filed out for searching, the suicide bomber blew himself up,
killing himself and others. Many others were seriously injured.
