A Somali police officer says four civilians are dead after a suicide bomber blew himself up in a restaurant in Baidoa town in southwestern Somalia.
Officer Ahmed Isaq says the bomber walked into the crowded restaurant posing as a customer and targeted a group of diners.
Isaq says three other people are wounded.
There is no immediate claim of responsibility for the blast. The al-Qaida-linked al-Shabab extremist group often carries out deadly bombings in high-profile areas of Somalia’s capital, Mogadishu, and elsewhere.
