Iraqi soldier kills 2 US troops in dispute

BAGHDAD – An Iraqi soldier opened fire on U.S. troops after a quarrel broke out Wednesday in northern Iraq, killing two American soldiers and wounding six in a military compound before he was shot to death, officials said.

The shooting took place as a series of bombings shook Baghdad for the third consecutive day, killing 23 people and wounding about 90, police said.
