BERLIN — Police say a man angered by a family feud has set off explosives outside his house in Germany, killing himself and wounding seven people in a small village.
Police spokesman Thomas Rodemer said that following an argument inside his home in Homberg village in Hesse state, the 49-year-old man drove away in his car, then returned and blew himself up inside the vehicle parked outside the house.
The seven people slightly wounded by debris from the explosion included family members, neighbors and two police officers who had been called to settle the family argument. The blast also damaged neighboring homes.
Rodemer said the bomber had a license to use explosives and that police are investigating the case.
The man's name was not released in keeping with Germany's privacy law.
