From Times Wire Reports
The U.S. Central Command said it is looking into a newspaper report that U.S. soldiers had stripped several Iraqi men and paraded them through a Baghdad park.
Oslo-based Dagbladet said four Iraqis were detained Thursday after entering a park where weapons were being stored. It said the men were stripped and paraded before being pushed onto a street. A picture showed three naked men in the park with soldiers walking behind them.
Navy Lt. Cmdr. Charles Owens said that if the report is true, the soldiers would be disciplined.
