For Immediate Release 

KABUL, Afghanistan (Feb. 8, 2011) — Coalition forces are investigating an incident where one Afghan civilian was killed and four received minor injuries during an engagement with insurgents emplacing improvised explosives devices near the Watangatu School in Alishang District of Laghman Province last night.

The Coalition unit fired several mortars at the insurgents to stop them from emplacing the IED once they had positively identified their intent. Preliminary reports indicate that one of the rounds may have caused the civilian casualty. 

Coalition forces discovered a jug filled with 200 lbs. of homemade explosives and an artillery shell in the same location where the insurgents were spotted emplacing the IED.",
