'Sunni Triangle' riots after Saddam's capture
Saddam Hussein loyalists rioted in Baghdad, ambushed a US patrol in Samarra, stormed the office of a US-backed mayor in Fallujah and battled American troops in Ramadi as cities in Iraq’s “Sunni Triangle” region seethed over the ex-dictator’s capture.
As soldiers fought off angry protesters and guerrilla attacks on Monday night and yesterday, the 4th Infantry Division said it had snared a leader of the uprising and 78 other people in a raid north of Baghdad, not far from where Saddam was captured three days earlier.
