ABUJA, Feb. 16 (Xinhua) -- Nigerian police confirmed 11 people including three suspected suicide bombers were killed in an attack in the country's northern state of Borno on Saturday.
Fifteen others were wounded in the attack suspected to have been carried out by terror group Boko Haram, Borno police chief, Damian Chukwu told Xinhua.
Chukwu said, an on-the-spot assessment by the police found the attackers infiltrated on early Saturday to the Polo general area of Maiduguri, the state capital.
The suspected Boko Haram militants shot sporadically at the locals before detonating improvised explosive devices strapped to their bodies, he said.
