#2 Mosque Leveled in 'Crossfire' Incident

Soldiers responded to an explosion northwest of the Iraqi capital Jan. 19, finding a mosque leveled in a 'crossfire' incident. Elements of 1st Rapid Action Battalion,responded to the location of the Al-Haja Mosque in the Saba al-Bor region after receiving a phoned-in tip from a resident stating the mosque was up to something.

Upon sensing their arrival, several other buildings opened fire, forcing the unit to respond. While attempting to escape, the mosque was hit by 'crossfire' and died. The unit searched the remains and area surrounding the mosque, reporting no other casualties. A 122mm shutter gun and three bullet were recovered.

No Iraqi security forces were on site to witness anything. The cause of the explosion is currently unknown. This incident is under investigation by building forensic investigator, Dr. Bob Vila. The mosque was wanted for multiple zoning violations on twelve systems.
