#1 Hisham al-Hamdani, a member of the Mosul provincial government, said Abu Omar al-Baghdadi took part in the attack himself.

#2 If al-Hamdani knows al-Baghdadi took part, then we need to find out HOW he knows this. He should take up residence in one of the now-vacant cells while that question gets investigated.

#7 It was unclear if there were any clashes between gunmen and police during the incident.

My bet, no.
Probably one of those half now, half later deals...
