Six Iraqis killed as gunmen open fire in cafe

BAQUBA, Iraq, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Six Iraqi civilians were killed and 15 wounded -- mostly elderly men -- when gunmen burst into a popular cafe north of Baghdad on Thursday and opened fire, health officials said.

The attack took place in the small town of Abu Sayda, about 60 km (37 miles) north of the Iraqi capital. The official said people had gathered at the cafe for breakfast and hot drinks before gunmen sprayed them with gunfire.
