There's a report from the San Diego Tribune. Unfortunately I only get a brief excerpt from Google, and when I open it up my system freezes. It's happened twice.

US and Iraqi troops raid building in Mosul searching for al-Qaeda ...
San Diego Union Tribune, United States - Nov 19, 2005
MOSUL, Iraq – US and Iraqi forces raided a farmhouse in northern Iraq at dawn Saturday, searching for suspected members of al-Qaeda in Iraq. ...

I did a search on "Mosul" and "Al Qaeda" then chose the News portion. It was approximately ten stories down. I did get to read a few sentences, and there were no identifications made at the time of this article.

Nearly 50 Iraqis Killed in Suicide Attacks [interesting Zarqawi info]

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1525400/posts

A U.S. and Iraqi raid on a suspected al Qaeda in Iraq safe house in Mosul sparked a three-hour firefight in which four insurgents and four policemen were killed and three guerrillas blew themselves up, said Gov. Duraid Kashmoulaof Nineveh province.

Iraqi and U.S. forces had suspected Abu Musab Zarqawi, leader of Iraq's most feared insurgent group, might be at the house, Kashmoula said. Zarqawi's whereabouts have been the topic of a stream of murky reports; U.S. military officials have said they believe Zarqawi has vowed not to be taken alive.

The U.S. military was examining the dead late Saturday, the governor said. U.S. military spokesmen in Baghdad said they had no information other than word of the firefight.
