A car bomb exploded in the north Nigerian town of Kaduna on Easter Sunday, killing 38 people and wounding 35, the police and emergency services said.
The car was being pursued by police as it headed towards a church when it crashed and exploded, the police and witnesses said.
No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, but the apparent targeting of a Christian place of worship will stir memories of a string of deadly assaults carried out by Islamist militants Boko Haram on Christmas Day last year.
