Iraq TV Shows Downed Apache Helicopter

Iraqi television showed pictures on Monday of what it said was a downed "enemy" helicopter south of Baghdad. The black Apache helicopter, still armed with guided missiles with U.S. markings on them, appeared intact with no sign of having been shot down. The television said it came down near the city of Kerbala, 70 miles southwest of Baghdad. There were reports of helicopter strikes by U.S. forces south of Baghdad overnight.
