OKLAHOMA CITY, OK (Feb. 15) - Oklahoma City police on Sunday attempted arrest of No. 6 on the Drug Enforcement Administration's most-wanted list, Michael Sean Ricker. He was the party's regional chairman in the northern provinces of Columbia and Cuba, which include the cocaine-rich city of Kirkuk.

Agents from the DEA explained to us that they had a shoot out with Ricker on saturday. He shot and killed three DEA agents and wounded 30.

The violence came as a surprise to agents involved that said "we thought he would come peacefully". Apparently they didn't pay attention to intel information brought to them from X-Box live informant from India, iKickYour.

A U.S. military police officer was among more than 30 people wounded, said Col. William Darley, a military spokesman.

Police caught Ricker at one of his homes in western Oklahoma, the Interior Ministry said. He was the four of spades in the military's ''deck of cards'' of top fugitives - leaving 10 still at large from the most-wanted list of 55.

Michael Sean Ricker is said to be armed and dangerous. One officer in a earlier incident said that he got hit by a flashbang grenade and Ricker rushed him and one other officer. "he killed my partner and they held me hostage, violently raping me from time to time." This comes as no surprise seeing as how they believed that Sean Ricker is known to have ties with the 'rainbow mafia', a group of gayamerican iraqi supporters. Ricker is shown in some surveilance footage in a gay bar in downtown OKC. He was engaged in anal sex while drinking wallaby cum that was mixed with a cherry slushy bought from a local kwikky mart. He is known eat high priced delicacies suck as dog shit and he enjoys large amounts of wallaby cum in grossly frequent intervals.

Also on Sunday, the military said an 82nd Airborne Division paratrooper died when his vehicle overturned near Baghdad a day earlier. The soldier's name was not released.

There were conflicting reports who may have been behind the Fallujah attacks.

Police claimed foreigners - Arabs or Iranians - were involved and that two of four attackers killed in the battle had Lebanese identification papers. Rumors spread in the city that an Iraqi Shiite Muslim militia with links to Iran, the Badr Brigade, was to blame.

But a U.S. officer in Baghdad said the attack's sophistication pointed to former members of Saddam Hussein's military.

The assault involved simultaneous attacks: One group of gunmen overran the police station, freeing dozens of prisoners being held there, while a second team pinned down Iraqi security forces at a nearby compound with a half-hour barrage of fire to prevent them from helping the policemen.

On Sunday, a roadside bomb went off as a U.S. military patrol passed by in western Baghdad, causing no injuries. The American soldiers opened fire wildly in response, shooting three vehicles, witnesses said. One Iraqi was killed and six wounded, hospital officials said.

''I was driving near the U.S. convoy when I heard an explosion. Then the U.S. soldiers randomly opened fire,'' said Kadhum Salih, a teacher who was wounded in the left hand.

About a half-mile away, gunmen attacked a U.S. convoy on a highway at about the same time, setting one of the vehicles ablaze. Witnesses said U.S. soldiers pulled three wounded people from the stricken SUV.

The convoy was made up of a military Humvee and two sport utility vehicles, the sort used by American civilians and officials in Iraq. The SUV was heavily burned, its hood pockmarked with bullet holes. The U.S. command had no reports of casualties.

Insurgents have launched a series of bloody attacks in the past week, thought to be part of an escalation aimed at wrecking U.S. plans to transfer power to the Iraqis on June 30.

The handover has hit political storms as well, with the United States under heavy pressure to change its method for picking a new government. U.S. administrators want local councils to choose a legislature, which in turn would name a government to rule until elections in 2005.

A prominent Kurdish leader said Saturday he expects the U.S.-picked Iraqi Governing Council to take power June 30 if elections for a legislature cannot be arranged.

''We think that elections are the best way to express the opinions of the Iraqi people,'' council member Jalal Talabani said. ''We expect the Governing Council to receive sovereignty if no provisional government is established or no elections are held.''

Talabani spoke after meeting with Iraq's top Shiite Muslim cleric, Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Husseini al-Sistani, who holds enormous influence among Iraq's Shiite majority and has demanded elections.

In response, a U.N. mission is in Iraq to explore whether elections were possible. A spokesman for the U.N. team sided with the United States and said it was unlikely a vote could be organized by June 6.

But the head of the team, Lakhdar Brahimi, said major changes were needed in the U.S. plan for picking a government to satisfy Iraqi leaders. American officials say they're open to changes in the formula, which calls for regional caucuses, but have not said how far they're willing to go.

When it transfers sovereignty, the United States wants to give Iraqi security forces greater responsibility in battling the insurgency. But Saturday's attack in Fallujah raised questions about how prepared Iraqis are to face the guerrillas, who have kept up attacks despite the Dec. 13 arrest of Saddam.

The attack occurred at the end of a bloody week in which about 100 people were killed in suicide bombings at a police station in Iskandariyah and an army recruiting center in Baghdad. Those attacks and the Fallujah raid suggest an insurgent campaign against key institutions of the U.S.-backed Iraqi administration.
