SAMARRA, Iraq (Reuters) - Three Iraqis were killed on Wednesday when a suicide car bomber attacked a U.S. convoy in the northern city of Samarra, a local police official said.
In a separate incident, an Iraqi policeman was killed when insurgents opened fire on U.S. soldiers in the town that the Iraqi interim government said it had seized from guerrillas after a major offensive in early October.
There were no immediate reports of U.S. casualties.
In another restive Sunni Muslim town, Ramadi, two Iraqis were killed in shooting after a suicide bomber had attacked a U.S. military checkpoint, witnesses and a hospital official said.
An official at Ramadi hospital said the two dead Iraqis were civilians. There was no immediate word from the U.S. military on the fighting there.
