A suicide car bomber attacked a U.S. military checkpoint at an entrance to Baghdad's Green Zone government and diplomatic compound Monday, a year to the day after U.S. forces captured Saddam Hussein.

"A suicide bomber hit Checkpoint 12. It's pretty ugly," a U.S. officer told Reuters.

A column of smoke rises after a powerful car bomb exploded at a checkpoint leading into the so-called "Green Zone" in Baghdad December 13, 2004.

The checkpoint is a main entrance to the sprawling complex which once housed Saddam's presidential palace.

An Iraqi police source said the suicide bomber was in a car.

Reuters journalists at the scene saw smoke pouring from the area, which had been sealed off by U.S. troops. Helicopters were circling overhead.

The blast, at 9:00 a.m. (0600 GMT), just when many Iraqis would be going to work in the Zone, shook buildings across central Baghdad.
