DTN News - AFGHAN WAR NEWS: US Soldiers On Guard At Military Base Following Shooting In Panjwayi District, Kandahar Province

(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - March 11, 2012: US soldiers keep watch at the entrance of a military base near Alkozai village following the shooting of Afghan civilians allegedly committed by a rogue US soldier in Panjwayi district, Kandahar province on March 11, 2012. 

An AFP reporter counted 16 bodies -- including women and children -- in three Afghan houses after a rogue US soldier walked out of his base and began shooting civilians early Sunday. 

NATO's International Security Assistance Force said it had arrested a soldier 'in connection to an incident that resulted in Afghan casualties in Kandahar province', without giving a figure for the dead or wounded. (Photo - Getty)
