Two American soldiers say they saw two comrades from another US unit kill a boy on a bicycle in cold blood.
The US convoy had encountered and killed six enemy soldiers on the edge of the Iraqi city of Karbala.
The boy, aged 12 to 15, was riding his bike about 15 to 20 metres away.
He was unarmed and posed no threat but the two soldiers shot him anyway.
“Wrong place, wrong time,” said one of the soldiers who shot him.
