A man was killed and six people were injured when unidentified attackers lobbed a hand grenade at a police patrol in Khuzdar, police said Sunday. The grenade attack occurred late Saturday in the town of Khuzdar, some 330 kilometres (205 miles) south of Quetta.
"The police patrol was the target, but the grenade was tossed over the vehicle's roof, fell in front of some shops and exploded, killing a passer-by and injuring six other people," senior police official Rehmat Ullah told AFP.
Another grenade exploded in almost the same spot, but it caused no casualties or damage, he said. Police are investigating the incident but have thus far made no arrests, he said.
