Several Bombings that occurred in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region early Sunday morning injured two police officers and a security guard, according to the regional public security department.
The explosions occurred at 2:30 a.m. in Kuqa County, southern Xinjiang, a regional public security department spokesman said.
It was seen that people hurled home-made explosives from inside a taxi, attacking the local public security station and industrial and commercial office.
In the accident, two police officers and a security guard were injured, and two police cars were destroyed.
Police killed five attackers at the scene, the spokesman said.
The local security has been tightened and an investigation has begun.
Kuqa has a population of about 400,000. It is about 740 kilometers from Urumqi, the regional capital.
