Pakistan bomb attack kills five
At least four police officers and a child were killed when a remote-controlled bomb exploded near a police truck in north-western Pakistan.
At least 21 people were injured in the blast which took place in Peshawar city's Lahori Gate area, police said.
A police officer said the truck was carrying constables heading to start their shift.
Militant attacks in Pakistan have risen sharply since May when US commandos killed al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden, BBC reported.
