BAGHDAD (Reuters) – An attacker wearing an Iraqi army uniform shot and killed two U.S. soldiers outside the volatile northern city of Mosul on Saturday, the U.S. military said.
"We have reports of a small arms fire attack in Hamam al-Alil, 20 km (12.5 miles) south of Mosul," said Major Derrick Cheng, a spokesman for the U.S. military in Mosul and surrounding Nineveh province.
"There are initial reports of two U.S. soldiers killed in the attack ... According to initial reports, an individual dressed in an Iraqi army uniform fired on the coalition forces and was killed in the incident."
An Iraqi police lieutenant-colonel in Mosul, who declined to be named, said the man who shot the U.S. soldiers was an Iraqi soldier who also acted as an imam at an Iraqi military training center in Hamam al-Alil.
He said the American soldiers were doing exercises in the training centre's yard at the time of the attack. He did not know what had happened to the attacker afterwards.
