FOB LOYALTY, August 2, 2006 - Soldiers from Company B, 2nd Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 6th Iraqi Army Division, raided a suspected safe house for kidnappers in the Fadhel district of east Baghdad early Saturday morning with the assistance of Multi-National Division - Baghdad Soldiers from 1st Squadron, 61st Cavalry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division. An Iraqi man approached an Iraqi army checkpoint manned by Company B and informed troops there that he and his brother had been kidnapped and had escaped. He told the IA soldiers that he was handcuffed to a window in a nearby home but had managed to pick the lock and escape with his brother. The man led an IA patrol to the house, where they found two AK-47 assault rifles, body armor, black masks and ammunition. The handcuffs were still attached to the window. The owners are wanted by Coalition and Iraqi Security Forces for questioning. |
