U.S. marines gather around a wounded Iraqi girl as they
try to treat her in central Iraq March 29, 2003. Confused front line
crossfire ripped apart an Iraqi family on Saturday after local soldiers
appeared to force civilians towards U.S. marines positions. The four-year
old girl, blood streaming from an eye wound, was screaming for her
mother while her father, shot in a leg, begged to be freed from the
plastic wrist cuffs slapped on him by U.S. marines so he could hug
his other terrified daughter. The girl's mother died in the crossfire.
