KABUL — A U.S. service member was killed and another was wounded in an insider attack Saturday in Kabul, when a member of the Afghan security forces opened fire on them, officials said.

The wounded soldier was evacuated to Bagram air base, a U.S. military installation about 35 miles north of Kabul, for medical treatment, according to a statement from Debra Richardson, a spokeswoman for the U.S.-led NATO coalition .

Richardson said the assailant was gunned down by other Afghan troops at the scene.
