On Tuesday night, four members of a family died when their house in Baghdad's Sadr
City section was destroyed. Police initially said the attack was from two mortar
shells, but later a police official and witnesses said the home was fired on by U.S.
aircraft. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of security concerns.

The U.S. military had no immediate comment.
