Baghdad - An Iraqi civilian was killed and 21 others wounded, four seriously, on Wednesday when a commuter bus was hit by a roadside bomb in Baghdad, said a police witness.
Witnesses said the bomb hit the white minivan bus on al-Imam al-Adaam Street, a main route through central Baghdad, about five minutes after a United States patrol had passed through.
Ahmad Shukarr, a policeman at al-Adaam Street, said one person was killed and 21 wounded, four seriously. He gave no other details.
A spokesman for the US military confirmed the explosion aboard a commuter bus, but was unable to provide further information.
