KARACHI, Pakistan

Several people were killed and scores injured Wednesday in a gun-and -bomb attack on a university campus in northwest Pakistan.

Rescue workers said they have found at least seven bodies, including a university professor.

The incident took place at Bacha Khan University in Charsaddah district, approximately 40 kilometers from Peshawar.

The attack has evoked memories of another gun-and bomb assault in Peshawar that killed more than 140 people, mostly students, in December 2014.
