Police targeted again
In Baquba a policeman was shot dead by rebels, the third in three days.
In Nasiriya the body of a policeman was fished out of the Euphrates river.
And a police station in the Mamun district was hit by mortar, killing one policeman and injuring two others.
Can't help but think of Iraqi police as sandbags.
