Bomb blast in Iraq kills 3, wounds 21

BAGHDAD: A bomb exploded in a market in a town just south of Baghdad on Sunday, killing at least three people, but police said the toll could rise.   

A source at a Baghdad hospital said they were treating 21 wounded from the explosion in Mahmudiya and had received three corpses.   

Police had few details about the blast but it came a day after more than 60 people were killed by a car bomb in a market in Baghdad's Shi'ite Sadr City district.
