BAGHDAD, Iraq — Saddam Hussein's (search) former second-in-command, Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri (search), was arrested in northern Iraq, an Iraqi Defense Ministry spokesman told al-Hurra television.
Saleh Sarhan said al-Douri was captured while in a clinic where he was receiving medical treatment.
"There was a major operation around Tikrit (search) and al-Dour and American forces supported by Iraqi civil defense corps members were able to capture Izzat al-Douri," he told the U.S. government-funded Arabic-language station in a live telephone interview.
The U.S. military said it had no immediate comment on the report.
