Sniper kills New York police officer near Baghdad
A New York police officer working with the US army was killed by a sniper near Baghdad, said a Multinational forces (MNF) statement, issued on Thursday. The 27-year-old American soldier was on duty at an American military camp near Baghdad when he was targeted by a sniper's shot, killing him immediately. The US army announced that 14 American soldiers were killed yesterday and another seven the previous day, which has been the biggest US human losses in Iraq in two days since major military operations to oust the Iraqi regime were seized.
