A freed Italian hostage was injured and an Italian intelligence officer killed Friday after a U.S. armored vehicle fired on a car in which they were riding in Iraq, Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi said.

Too early to know for sure whether our troops were really to blame, or whether the Italians didn't adequately signal who they were, etc. Nonetheless, this journalist's captivity was a big story in Italy. This doesn't help our public relations one bit.
