Iraq: Police Storm Mall, Kill Gunmen After Standoff
[Ynet] Police in Iraq say they have stormed a mall in a northern city that gunnies used to attack a cop shoppe, killing three gunnies and ending an hours-long standoff.

Gunmen hid on the roof of the six-story Jawahir mall in Kirkuk on Wednesday and opened fire on a police headquarters nearby in the city. The gunnies later shot at civilians fleeing the mall, trapping 11 shop owners inside. Brig. Gen. Sarhad Qadir, Kirkuk's police commander, said officers stormed the mall Thursday morning before dawn, killing the gunnies. The attack left large parts of the mall burned.
Let us together anticipate the coming revolution in shopping mall design... Something along the lines of a small castle, d'you think?
