He died from gunshot wounds. He was taken from the scene to a military hospital but he died of those wounds later on. Meanwhile here in Baghdad no one has yet claimed responsible for the bombing of the Jordanian embassy which occurred yesterday. City morgue officials are now saying 16 people died during that attack and there were dozens of civilian pedestrians who were wounded. Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez who runs the U.S. military operations in Iraq said that that bombing proves that there are terrorist elements operating in Iraq and that they can now be targeting civilians.
