WASHINGTON (AP) - A Pentagon official says a U.S. soldier killed
five fellow troops at American base in Baghdad.
The five were killed in a shooting Monday afternoon, Baghdad
time, at Camp Liberty near Baghdad International.
A senior military official in Washington says he has no other
details on what happened. He spoke on condition of anonymity
because the circumstances surrounding the deaths are under
investigation.
The toll was the highest for U.S. personnel in a single incident
since April 10, when a suicide truck driver killed five American
soldiers with a blast near a police headquarters in the northern
city of Mosul.
