  A combined Afghan and coalition security force killed one insurgent and detained several others during a security operation in Sar-e Pul district, Sar-e Pul province, yesterday. 
  
  With the help of tips from residents, the Afghan-led security force was led to an area where a group of known insurgents were conducting Taliban activities. The force located one of the insurgents and called on him to surrender peacefully. The insurgent did not comply, refusing to respond to verbal Pashtu commands. The insurgent, armed with an AK-47 rifle, made a series of aggressive movements and was engaged and killed by the force.  The force was able to detain the remaining insurgents without incident.
