5 Killed 19 Wounded By Car Bomber

Good Morning,

BAGHDAD, Iraq - The former electricity minister _ a dual U.S.-Iraqi citizen who was jailed for corruption _ escaped police custody with the help of security agents he once hired to protect him, an anti-corruption official said Monday.

Elsewhere in Baghdad, a car bomb killed five people and wounded at least 19 in the southern Sunni area of Sadiya, near a vegetable market. Though no one immediately claimed responsibility, sectarian conflict between Sunnis and Shiites has fueled much of the recent violence in Baghdad.

Have a nice day.
