Two US Special Forces killed by Afghan police officer

By Atia Abawi, NBC News

Updated at 5:35 a.m. ET: KABUL, Afghanistan -- Two U.S. Special Forces service members and an Afghan police officer were shot dead by another local policeman in the Farah province of western Afghanistan on Friday, officials said.

The killing — which local police said was by an Afghan recruited just five days earlier to a village defense force — is the sixth similar incident in two weeks.

Friday's assailant was shot and killed and an investigation has begun, Col. Hagen Messer, spokesman for the International Joint Command in the country, said.
