BAGHDAD, July 14, 2009 – U.S. forces apprehended a wanted man suspected of being the leader of a bomb-making cell during a July 12 civil affairs mission west of Baghdad.
Civil affairs officers from C Troop, 150th Armored Reconnaissance Squadron, went to the man’s house July 12 to pay for damages to his front door caused during a previous attempt to capture the known criminal.
The man attempted to flee through a field behind his house, but surrendered to pursuing C Troop soldiers, who transferred him to Iraqi army custody.
The suspected criminal admitted he is a member of an insurgency group. Iraqi soldiers had been searching for him for nearly a week.
“He was listed ninth on the [battalion’s] Iraqi high-value target list, and there was a terrorist warrant for his arrest here in Iraq,” said Army 2nd Lt. Jason Hickman, a C Troop platoon leader.
The man also is one of the 30th Heavy Brigade Combat Team’s “most wanted.” The 30th HBCT is the parent brigade to the 150th Armored Reconnaissance Squadron, and is made up of National Guardsmen from North Carolina, West Virginia and Colorado. C Troop is based in Glen Jean, W.Va.

I heard he may have to be released...one of the guards called him a poo-poo head...ACLU is on the scene...
Was he Mirandized?
Call Pelosi. We have to keep her in the loop. Make sure you keep a copy of the telecon.
Let the government in Iraq deal with him in there own way.
If he becomes the ward of the United States the current squatter soiiing the Whitehouse will release him so he can return to his chosen profession, killing military personal.
Soldier: "Mirandized sir?!?"
Captain: "Yes Private. The Gelding-in..er..Commander-in-Chief ordered that all prisioners be Mirandized".
Soldier: "Sorry sir. With all the IED's goin' off I thought you said to Martinize him."
Captain: "What!! Where is he??"
Soldier: "He's over in the morgue, sir."
Captain: "You mean he's dead?"
Soldier: "Yes sir. But he's very clean."
LOL!
