Gunmen attack Sri Lanka cricketers

Five police officers and a coach driver were killed in the attack by about a dozen gunmen, who opened fire on the bus with small arms, grenades and rockets as it slowed at a traffic circle near the 60,000-seater Gaddafi stadium, where the team was due to play a test match against hosts Pakistan.
