Dozens of gunmen opened fire at a university in a northwest Pakistan region near the Afghan border early Wednesday, killing three police officers and a security guard, authorities said. The attack occurred in Lower Dir, which borders Pakistan's tribal regions and is near the Swat Valley, Associated Press reported. A top government official said Taliban fighters detained 14 of the suspected attackers in Swat later Wednesday. Local police official Pervez Rahim said the gunmen's identity was not clear, but that they fired upon police who were in a vehicle guarding the school. A university security guard was also shot and died on the spot, Rah said.
