Iraqi gunmen ambush US convoy
(Baghdad, Iraq-AP) May 27, 2003 -- Gunmen ambushed a US military convoy in northern Iraq on Monday, killing an American soldier and wounding another.

In a separate incident, another US soldier was killed and three were injured when a Humvee ran over a land mine in an apparent attack in Baghdad.

In a city 45 miles northeast of Baghdad, US soldiers shot and killed a woman who tried to approach them carrying two hand grenades. The shooting took place immediately after unknown attackers threw handheld explosives at US soldiers guarding a former base of a pro-Iranian military unit.
