No I wasn't, but the Marine commander that was there agreed that he was a wounded prisoner, and everyone who was there seems clear on the point that he was not booby-trapped. And if, as the Marine commander also agreed, he'd been there since being left by the previous group of coalition troops, who had held him prisoner and then left him for later pick-up, they must have been pretty sure he was thorougly disabled -- I don't think they'd leave behind wounded enemy who were still in any condition to pose a threat.
