Boko Haram Hits Chadian Police HQ

Two blasts went off outside the police headquarters and academy in the capital of Chad, whose forces have been instrumental in fighting armed group Boko Haram in neighbouring Nigeria, police officials said.
The country's interior minister said at least one suicide bomber attacked the police and intelligence offices in N'Djamena on Monday, with social media reports indicating that a number of people were killed in the attack.

Interior Minister Abderahim Bireme Hamid said told Reuters news agency that security forces had locked down the area but the situation was ongoing.
He said it was too early to give any toll from the incident.
Social media users in the capital said that a number of deaths had been reported and that Boko Haram was suspected of carrying out the attack.
The government convened an emergency meeting following the explosions, an official said on condition of anonymity.
