Gunmen kill police officer's son, uncle in SW Pakistan

QUETTA, Pakistan: Police in Pakistan say gunmen have opened fire on a police officer's car in the northwestern city of Quetta, killing his minor son and uncle and injuring the officer critically.
Officer Abdul Qayum says fellow officer Abdul Samad came under attack in the suburban area of Nawa Kili when returning home after purchasing food for breakfast early Wednesday.
Qayum said attackers escaped on motorcycles. He said the boy and uncle died at a hospital and Samad is in critical condition.
The attack came hours after counter-terrorism police killed four 'terrorists' in an overnight raid in the Terameel area. Three officers were wounded in the firefight.
Quetta is the capital of Baluchistan province, which is the scene of low-level insurgency by Baluch separatists. Islamic militants also operate in the region.
