#2 Interpreter kills 2 U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan
An interpreter in Afghanistan shot dead two U.S. soldiers, a U.S. military official said on Saturday, adding that the attacker appeared to be a disgruntled employee rather than a militant. The NATO-led force in Afghanistan said earlier that two U.S. service members and one "U.S. employee" had been killed in an incident in the east of the country on Friday, without giving further details. The interpreter was shot dead by other soldiers after killing the two.

Afghan national or US immigrant?
