KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) -- Canadian and Afghan forces killed as many as 27 militants and captured three in fighting throughout Afghanistan over the weekend, and Afghan army sergeant also was killed, officials said Monday.

Three suicide car bombs Monday injured a U.S. soldier, another coalition soldier and an Afghan boy, officials said.

A fourth would-be suicide bomber detonated his explosives prematurely Sunday evening, injuring two militants nearby, a police official said.
