US forces arrest two armed groups' cameramen in N. Iraq
2006-04-30
The US army arrested two cameramen working for armed groups in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, a statement by the army said Saturday. US soldiers "noticed the two men video taping their convoy as they conducted a security patrol in the city," the statement said. It added, "As soon as the Soldiers began to move towards the camera crew, the two individuals scrambled in an attempt to flee. Effective maneuvering allowed the troops to box in the men without incident." According to the statement, weapons and an initiating improvised explosive device was found in the vehicle of the camera crew.

#3  I'd be a lot happier if these reports started saying US forces killed these clowns.

Leave the "arresting" to the cops.
