Blackanthem Military News, WASHINGTON, D.C., Aug. 9, 2006 – U.S. forces in Iraq have arrested several Iraqis suspected of involvement in the Jan. 7 abduction of an American journalist, a senior U.S. military officer told reporters in Baghdad today.

“Coalition forces have detained four Iraqi men that we believe to have been involved in the kidnapping of Jill Carroll, the ‘Christian Science Monitor’ journalist held hostage in Iraq for 82 days earlier this year,” Army Maj. Gen. William B. Caldwell VI said during a Baghdad press briefing. The general did not say when the suspects were arrested.
