MOSUL, Iraq - U.S. soldiers stormed a house in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul Tuesday, killing one Iraqi and seizing key allies of Saddam Hussein who were hiding inside, a U.S. officer at the scene said.
"Individuals of very high interest to the coalition forces were hiding out in the building," Lieutenant Colonel William Bishop of the 101st Airborne Division told Reuters.
Local residents said there had been rumors that Saddam's sons Qusay and Uday had been hiding in the city.
"This morning we went to the building and surrounded it, and detained several of these high-interest personalities," Bishop said.
Bishop said one Iraqi had been killed and five wounded in the battle.
The house, a large villa, was badly damaged, and its roof caved in after it was apparently hit by a missile.
U.S. forces have announced the capture of 34 of the 55 Iraqis on a most-wanted list of members of Saddam's regime, but Saddam and his sons have not been found.
U.S. officials say Saddam is probably still alive and hiding somewhere in Iraq. Audio tapes said to have been made by the deposed leader have been given to Arab television networks, exhorting Iraqis to fight occupying U.S. and British troops.
Guerrilla attacks against U.S. forces have killed 39 American soldiers since May 1 when President George W. Bush declared major combat over. Sunday, two U.S. soldiers were killed in an ambush to the west of Mosul.
