Jordan: Military Officer Kills Americans, South African At Training Center
A Jordanian military officer shot and killed two Americans and a South African before security forces shot and killed him at a police training center outside of Amman on Nov. 9, Jordan News Agency reported. According to a government spokesman, the officer also wounded two other Americans and four Jordanians in the attack at the Muaqar training facility, which was established by a 2004 U.S.-Jordanian agreement to train Iraqi police officers. Lone-wolf attacks such as this one are notoriously hard to thwart.
