A young boy was among two victims killed in a car bomb attack in the southeastern province of Sanliurfa, Governor Gungor Azim Tuna.
The 10-year-old victim was killed in the explosion near a complex that houses judges and prosecutors in the Viransehir district, according to the governorate, and 15 others were injured, Turkey's Anadolu Agency reported Saturday.
The office added that the body of a neighborhood guard was later found in the debris following the blast that occurred on Friday.

The terrorist attack was carried out by detonating the bomb-laden car via remote control. The housing complex was severely damaged, Tuna added.
The child who died in the blast was the son of a court clerk, and the injured were taken to local hospitals, he said.
The governor added that he briefed President Recep Tayyip Erdogan who expressed condolences for the victims, especially for the boy who was killed.
