STORYLINE:
Police say a suicide bomber riding on a bicycle has targeted a vehicle carrying security forces in southwestern Pakistan, killing at least eight people and wounding more than 20.
Senior police officer Imtiaz Shah says the attacker blew himself up Saturday near a vehicle belonging to the paramilitary Frontier Corps in Quetta, the capital of Baluchistan province.
A government spokesman said the attack killed six civilians and two members of the security forces.
A spokesman for the main Taliban group in Pakistan, claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement, saying the target was a Frontier Corps convoy.
Baluchistan has long been the scene of a low-level insurgency by Baloch separatist groups.
