BAGHDAD, Iraq - Tips from local citizens helped Coalition forces capture a suspected Special Groups criminal and an associate in northeast Baghdad early Friday morning.

Based on intelligence information, Coalition forces targeted a location where they believed a suspected Special Groups leader from Kut was hiding. Special Groups criminals already in custody implicated the captured suspect in numerous crimes, including facilitating weapons and ordering the emplacement of improvised explosive devices.

Coalition forces received tips from local citizens, who helped identify the suspect's specific location. Because of the tips, Coalition forces were able to detain the suspected outlaw and one associate without incident. The suspected outlaw told Coalition forces he fled to Baghdad from Kut to evade Coalition forces operating in Wasit Province.

"More and more Iraqis are stepping forward because they are fed up with the crime and terror Special Groups criminals bring to their neighborhoods," said U.S. Navy Lt. Patrick Evans, MNF-I spokesperson. "Citizens are revealing weapon caches and criminals, while Iraqi Security Force elements are growing more capable in order to continue building a better Iraq."
