U.S.: Leading militant captured in Iraq

By SAMEER N. YACOUB, Associated Press Writer

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Iraqi soldiers captured a militant leader and more than 30 insurgents were killed or wounded Friday in a gunbattle in eastern Baghdad, the U.S. military said.

The military said the gunfight erupted after Iraqi forces came under during a raid in the Shiite slum of Sadr City.

An insurgent leader was detained during the operation. The military said he headed "multiple insurgent cells in Baghdad" that had attacked Iraqi and coalition forces with roadside bombs and car bombs.
