After Coalition troops issued a series of de-escalation attempts and warnings, the patrol was attacked by a barrage of stones, small arms fire, and arson from nearly 10 militia men. Coalition forces returned fire in self-defense, killing an adult male combatant. The incident is under investigation. One U.S. service member received a superficial injury during the engagement and since returned to duty.
