4 militants killed in attack on Somalia govt training site

Mogadishu - A Somali police officer says four militants have been killed while trying to stage an attack on a training compound used for intelligence officials in Mogadishu.
Captain Mohammed Hussein said Sunday the attack started with a suicide car bombing outside the intelligence school, which killed two attackers.
He says soldiers then shot two gunmen who had seemingly lost their way and stormed a civilian house close to their target.
No group has claimed responsibility for the attack but suspicion fell on the al-Qaeda-linked al-Shabaab group, which is waging an insurgency against the country's Western-backed weak government.
Al-Shabaab has vowed it would step up attacks against Somali government and the African Union forces in Somalia during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
