Anna Nicole Autopsy: Shot Dead, Execution Style

Posted by: Hammer / 9:47 AM

No, Anna Nicole Smith was not shot in the back of the head. But the AP is reporting that Shia police officers in Tal Afar, in northwestern Iraq, participated in a day-long killing spree which left 60 Sunnis dead:

Shiite militants and police enraged by massive truck bombings in the northwestern town of Tal Afar went on a revenge spree against Sunni residents there Wednesday, killing as many as 60 people, officials said.

The gunmen began roaming Sunni neighborhoods in the city, shooting at residents and homes, according to police and a local Sunni politician.

Ali al-Talafari, a Sunni member of the local Turkomen Front Party, said the Iraqi army had arrested 18 policemen accused of being involved after they were identified by the Sunni families targeted. But he said the attackers included Shiite militiamen.

He said more than 60 Sunnis had been killed, but a senior hospital official in Tal Afar put the death toll at 45, with four wounded.
