  • Story Text: Blast wounds civilian in Baghdad

    A bomb apparently aimed at a U.S. patrol exploded in
    central Baghdad on Saturday and an Iraqi civilian had been
    wounded.

    Small-arms fire crackled after the explosion, which
    went off in a narrow street near the St Raphael hospital.

    Witnesses said the bomb had been placed under a pile
    of bricks across the street from a pharmacy.

    The U.S. military said it was checking on the cause of
    the explosion at about 8 a.m. (0400 GMT) in Baghdad's
    morning rush hour.
