An Iraqi Police truck and a 401st Military Police Company Humvee drive
across the desert towards the objective during a raid August 23, 2003,
northeast of Tikrit, Iraq. The raid, led by the Iraqi Police of the
Salah Al-Dein province and supported by the 720th Military Police
Battalion of Fort Hood, Texas, targeted a gang of bandits responsible
for car jackings and robberies along the road from Tikrit to Kirkuk.
Iraqi Police arrested 25 suspects, and confiscated several million
Dinars, as well as weapons and ammunition. The increased activity of
the Iraqi Police has led to a reduction in crime against civilians and
coalition forces in Tikrit and the surrounding villages.
