Gunman killed after shooting U.S. soldier in Baiji
2009-01-31
Aswat al-Iraq: A gunman who shot down a U.S. soldier and wounded another in the district of Baiji was killed by U.S. army fire on Friday, a police source said. "A gunman from Baiji opened fire on Friday afternoon at U.S. soldiers who were standing in front of al-Rifaie school, which is used as a voting center, in the central part of the district, (35 km) north of Tikrit city, killing one of them and injuring another," the source told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. "The U.S. soldiers fired back at the gunman, killing him instantly," the source said, adding "the U.S. soldiers arrested the gunman's brother inside his house in central Baiji".

Aswat al-Iraq news agency managed to contact a source within the U.S. forces' Joint Coordination Office who said that "a gunman opened fire at the U.S. servicemen in Baiji district and the U.S. soldiers fired back and shot him down".
