RAMADI - Seven people were killed and 16 injured Wednesday in a suicide car bomb attack in Iraq’s western city of Ramadi, police said.

A suicide bomber rammed his explosives-laden car into a police check post in Ramadi town, some 110 km west of Baghdad, an official said.

Two traffic policemen were among the dead. Anbar province is considered a stronghold of the Al Qaeda network in Iraq.

The attack came two weeks after the US troops pulled out of Iraqi cities and towns.
