SURABAYA, Indonesia (Reuters) - Indonesia's police chief said a suicide attack outside a police building in Surabaya on Monday, which wounded officers and civilians, was carried out by a family of five that included an eight-year-old child.
The family, riding on two motorbikes, blew themselves up at a checkpoint outside the police station, Police Chief Tito Karnavian told a news conference. The young child survived and is now recovering, he said.
On Sunday, a family of Islamist militants killed 13 people in suicide attacks on three churches in Surabaya.
