Suspected Car Bomb Injures 6 in London
A suspected car bomb went off near a West London subway station, injuring at least six people in what police said was an attack by Irish Republican Army dissidents.
Police said they believed the late-night bombing was the work of dissidents seeking to raise political tensions in Northern Ireland at a crucial juncture in peacemaking efforts.
The bomb exploded on a street lined with shops, pubs and restaurants, about 100 yards from the Ealing Broadway station. Police said they received a warning shortly before the bomb exploded but that it was imprecise.
