Senegal: Two dead, five wounded in Dakar bus petrol bomb attack

Two people were killed and five wounded when an attacker hurled a petrol bomb on a bus in Dakar on Tuesday, the interior minister said. Bus driver Abdoulaye Diop, who was hurt in the attack, told an AFP journalist at the scene that a group of hooded youths boarded the bus and insulted him, while one lit the bomb and threw it.

The bus was travelling from the suburbs to the centre of Dakar when it was blocked by a group of people.
