Iraq suicide attack kills 14

***************************************************

Associated Press

Tuesday, February 27, 2007 (Baghdad):

A suicide bomber driving a stolen ambulance packed with explosives struck a police station in Ramadi, killing at least 14 people and wounding 10.

It was the second bombing to strike the volatile Anbar province in less than a week.

A truck bomb struck worshippers leaving a mosque on Saturday in Habbaniyah, to the east of Ramadi, killing more than 50 people.

The bomber on Monday tried to slam through a checkpoint outside the Warar police station in central Ramadi but exploded after police opened fire against him.

He was driving an ambulance that had been stolen two days ago from the city's hospital.

Ramadi, 115 km west of Baghdad, is the capital of the Sunni insurgent stronghold of Anbar province and has seen some of the bloodiest street battles of the war.

I'm not sure what to make of all the stories? Sounds like some truths with a whole lot of after action exaggerations.
