After a 13-year old suicide bomber killed 53 and wounded dozens more Saturday night, on Sunday police in the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk captured a 12-year old boy carrying an explosive vest.

The boy, who was sent by the ISIS terror group to kill locals in the predominantly Kurdish city, was captured hours after another suicide bomber blew himself up near a mosque in Kirkuk, wounding three.

After he was captured, the would-be bomber burst into tears as police removed the explosive device, which was later detonated in a controlled explosion by an Iraqi bomb squad.
