(CBS/AP) - A bomb exploded in southern Afghanistan's largest city of Kandahar on Monday, killing at least one person and wounding two, Afghan officials said. It followed the killing of a local government leader near the country's volatile eastern border region earlier in the day.
The Kandahar bomb went off at the city's customs house during a visit by NATO troops, police chief Khan Mohammad Mujahid said. He said an Afghan interpreter was killed, and at least two people were wounded in the attack.
Sources tell CBS News that initial reports suggest a U.S. service member may also have been killed, but that information could not be immediately returned.
