Grenade attack in Galkayo kills one Puntland police officer
2013-05-11
GALKAYO, Somalia -- An explosion at a police station on Monday in Galkayo has killed one police officer and injured others, Garowe Online reports.

According to sources, the attack was a grenade attack followed by a gunfight at police officers at the Miir police station in north Galkayo. One officer died from his injuries while 3 other police officers were injured. The other officers were in stable condition.

Police authorities told media that they are tracking Monday night's attackers and have leads in the case.

Galkayo -- the capital of Mudug region shared by both Galmudug and Puntland state -- a once volatile trading hub has been relatively stable.
