U.S. troops kill Iraqi couple and wound daughter
Reuters - Sunday, January 25
BAGHDAD - U.S. troops shot dead a couple and wounded their eight-year-old daughter during an early morning raid on their house in northern Iraq Saturday, a senior Iraqi police officer said.
Major-General Turhan Abdul Rahman, deputy chief commander of police in Kirkuk province, said U.S. forces stormed the house of Dhiya Hussein, a former officer in the Iraqi army under Saddam Hussein, in Hawija, 210 km north of Baghdad.
A U.S. military spokesman confirmed that a man and a woman had been killed and a child wounded in the raid, but gave no further details.
The spokesman said the incident took place during a joint operation with Iraqi forces. The Iraqi police general said no Iraqi troops were present at the raid.
Kirkuk is one of the northern provinces where unrest persists despite a reduction in violence in the country. U.S. forces there have yet to hand over responsibility for security to Iraqi troops as they have done in most of Iraq.
