Police returned fire and killed the man on foot, he said.
The US and NATO military forces confirmed there had been an incident but said it was too early to say what had happened.
In other news, six pro-Taliban militants were killed yesterday when their vehicle packed with explosives blew up in Pakistan near the Afghan border, officials said. The explosion was caused by a hand grenade that went off accidently when the men were traveling through the Bajaur region, a militant said.
“The hand grenade blast blew up the ammunition and explosives in the vehicle killing six militants and wounding two,” said a Taliban member who declined to be identified.
