BAGHDAD, Iraq_A suicide truck bomber on Monday rammed into the provincial
headquarters of a commando force north of Baghdad, killing at least nine
soldiers and injuring 10 civilians, police said.

The truck carrying vegetables drove through razor wire barricades around the
two-story building of the Interior Ministry's police commandos in Samarra
town, police Capt. Laith Mohammed said.

Samarra is 95 kilometers (60 miles) north of Baghdad.

The building was virtually leveled and three houses nearby were also
severely damaged, said other police officials contacted by telephone.
