BANDUNG, Indonesia (AP) — A man blew himself up Wednesday outside a police station on Indonesia’s main island of Java in what appeared to be the latest in a string of suicide attacks in the world’s most populous Muslim nation. Television reports showed white smoke billowing from the building and people running in panic subsequent to a loud bang. Bandung Police Chief Aswin Sipayung says a man tried to enter the Astana Anyar police station with a motorcycle and detonated explosives where police were lining up for morning assembly. At least three officers have been injured. Police are still investigating the attack in West Java’s Bandung city and whether the man, who has not been identified, had links to radical groups.
