How many Iraqi policemen were killed?

The United States military says troops have killed six Iraqi policemen and seven suspected militants during a raid in Baghdad. The military said the troops were attempting to arrest an Iraqi police officer accused of rebel activity. The military said fighting started when the troops were attacked from an Iraqi police position.

Iraqi officials say a series of bomb attacks has killed at least 17 people in Baghdad. Many more are wounded. Officials said bombs in three cars exploded within minutes of each other in the majority Shiite area of Karradah. At least three policemen were killed. A fourth bomb exploded later in central Baghdad.
