A roadside bomb injured three American troops on Thursday near Fallujah, a day after the grisly killing and mutilation of four American contract workers in the city. The top U.S. administrator in Iraq aid the deaths would not go unpunished.

[Brig. Gen. Mark Kimmitt] said U.S. troops would hunt down those who carried out the killings.

"We will pacify that city," he said. "We will be back in Fallujah. It will be at the time and place of our choosing."
