BAGHDAD – Coalition forces killed four criminals and destroyed their heavy weapons in two separate engagements April 29.

At approximately 5:15 p.m., criminals were observed firing a mortar system in north east Baghdad.

A fixed wing aircraft proceeded to drop one bomb, killing the two criminals and destroying their weapons system.

At approximately 5:30 p.m., Soldiers from the 4th battalion, 64th Armored regiment came under attack by heavy machine gun fire from a house in north east Baghdad. The Soldiers returned fire killing the two criminals and destroying two illegal machine guns.

“These criminals continue to fire mortars and machine guns with total disregard for human life,” said Maj. Jacqueline Patten, MND-B spokeswoman.

“Once again these cowards have shown they care nothing about the lives of innocent Iraqis who wish only for peace and hope.”
