Power CONTINUED FROM PAGE A1 hour and a half after the power surge, said Sean McGreevy, res idence life coordinator for Moore and Snowden residence halls. Fourth-year psychology stu dent Crystal Hall was working the desk in Snowden when the power went out. “I have to sit hereuntil 7, and they said it’s probably not going to be on any time soon, so it’s def initely not a good thing,” said Hall, who was sitting in the dark trying to read a newspaper with a flashlight while a siren was blar ing in the background. She looked across the Towers lobby to Moore residence hall, where the power was still on. “It’s kind of weird to be sitting in the dark over here and see them in the light over there,” Hall said. Comments on this story?E-mail gamecockudesk@hotmail.com U.S. soldiers beaten to death with concrete blocks in Iraq BY MARIAM FAM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS' MOSUL, IRAQ - Iraqi teenagers dragged two bloodied U.S. soldiers from a wrecked ve hicle and pummeled them with concrete blocks Sunday, wit nesses said, describing the killings as a burst of savagery in a city once safe for Americans. Another soldier was killed by a bomb and a U.S.-allied police chief was assassinated. The U.S.-led coalition also said it grounded commercial flights after the military confirmed that a missile struck a DHL cargo plane that landed Saturday at Baghdad International Airport with its wing aflame. Nevertheless, American offi cers insisted they were making progress in bringing stability to Iraq, and the U.S.-appointed Governing Council named an am bassador to Washington - an Iraqi-American woman who spent the past decade lobbying U.S. lawmakers to promote democracy in her homeland. Witnesses to the Mosul attack said gunmen shot two soldiers driving through the city center, sending their vehicle crashing into a wall. The 101st Airborne Division said the soldiers were driving to another garrison. About a dozen swarming teenagers dragged the soldiers out of the wreckage and beat them with concrete blocks, the witnesses said. “They lifted a block and hit them with it on the face,” said Younis Mahmoud, 19. It was unknown whether the soldiers were alive or dead when pulled from the wreckage. Initial reports said the sol diers’ throats were cut. But an other witness, teenager Bahaa Jassim, said the wounds ap peared to have come from bullets. “One of the soldiers was shot under the chin and the bullet came out of his head. I saw the hole in his helmet. The other was shot in the throat,” Jassim said. Some people looted the vehicle of weapons, CDs and a backpack, Jassim said. “They remained there for over an hour without the Americans knowing anything about it,” he said. “I... went and told other troops.” Television footage showed the soldiers’ bodies splayed on the ground as U.S. troops secured the area. One victim’s foot appeared to have been severed. The frenzy recalled the October 1993 scene in Somalia, when locals dragged the bodies of Marines killed in fighting with warlords through the streets. In Baqouba, just north of Baghdad, insurgents detonated a roadside bomb as a 4th Infantry Division convoy passed, killing one soldier and wounding two others, the military said. In Baghdad, Brig. Gen. Mark Kimmitt confirmed the Mosul deaths but refused to provide de tails. “We’re not going to get ghoul ish about it,” he said. The savagery of the attack was unusual for Mosul, once touted as a success story in sharp con trast to the anti-American vio lence seen in Sunni Muslim ar eas north and west of Baghdad. In recent weeks, however, at tacks against U.S. troops have in creased in Mosul, raising con cerns the insurgency is spread ing. Simultaneously, attacks have accelerated against Iraqis con sidered to be supporting Americans — such as policemen and politicians working for the interim Iraqi administration. On Sunday, gunmen killed the Iraqi police chief of Latifiyah, 20 miles south of Baghdad, and his bodyguard and driver, American and Iraqi officials said. No fur ther details were released. The assassination occurred one day after suicide bombers struck two police stations north east of Baghdad within 30 min utes, killing at least 14 people. Gunmen on Saturday also killed an Iraqi police colonel protecting oil installations in Mosul. In Samara, about 75 miles north of Baghdad, Iraqi police said six U.S. Apache helicopter gunships blasted marshland af ter four rocket-propelled grenades were fired at the American military garrison at the city’s northern end. One Iraqi passer-by was killed in the air at tack, police said. In Kirkuk, 150 miles north of Baghdad, a bomb exploded at an oil compound, injuring three American civilian contractors from the U.S. firm Kellogg Brown & Root. The three suffered facial cuts from flying glass, U.S. Lt. Col. Matt Croke said. --1 jS 1 i>-£ | | gj % '| I§ :t’ !': lir Sell it on half.com and i SISK ^ ^ t-T 4 ^ V „ V ? * / I r ^ ^ ^ K>t<ii ,‘ *» 4 f ,1 C ^\, - V iijlf get more out of it than # you did all semester.
