Italian woman journalist kidnapped in Baghdad
BAGHDAD, Iraq Gunmen in Iraq have seized a woman who writes for an Italian newspaper. Iraqi police say the reporter (Giuliana Sgrena) was taken by four gunmen in a car near a bridge in central Baghdad. She works for the newspaper Il Manifesto.
She's at least the second Italian journalist kidnapped in Iraq. A freelance reporter was reported missing in mid-August and reported killed later that month.
