U.S. forces raid police precinct in western Baghdad
Source: Voice of Iraq

Baghdad, Oct 11, (VOI) - Early on Thursday a U.S. force raided the headquarters of a police precinct in al-Bayaa neighborhood in western Baghdad and arrested seven policemen, while media reports asserted that two U.S. soldiers were killed and 38 injured in an indirect fire attack on a major U.S. military base in Baghdad overnight, a police source said.

"U.S. forces, backed by helicopters, raided at dawn a police precinct in al-Bayaa neighborhood in western Baghdad, where they arrested Lieutenant Dureid Abd el-Hussein and six policemen," the source told the independent news agency Voices of Iraq (VOI).

"The force confiscated a police vehicle and damaged some properties," he added.
"The main reason for arresting the officer was his suspected involvement in the attack on the U.S. Camp Victory military base near the Baghdad International Airport," he explained.
