PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AP) — Suspected militants ambushed a vehicle carrying a government administrator in northwest Pakistan on Tuesday, killing him, two of his guards and a passerby, officials said.
The attack took place in the Bannu district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, said Alam Khan, a local police official. He identified the administrator killed as Shah Wali, who served in Miran Shah near the Afghan border.
The ambush came a day after a suicide bombing near a police vehicle in the northwestern district of Lakki Marwat killed a senior police officer.
