BAGHDAD - Iraqi police say a bomb in Fallujah has killed four police officers and one civilian.

A police official says 15 people also are injured after Wednesday morning's blast outside a bank in the one-time Sunni insurgent stronghold west of Baghdad.

The injured includes an Iraqi television cameraman.

Police and a crowd gathered in the area after an explosion at 6:30 a.m.

A second blast caused the casualties.

The police official spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to talk to the media.
