ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Gunmen on a motorcycle opened fire at a vehicle in the Pakistani capital Friday, wounding two men, police said.

The identity of the wounded men was not known, police said. It was also not clear if the gunmen were Islamist militants who have carried out two similar attacks on military men in the capital in recent weeks.
