"Air strike mistakenly kills 10 police in Afghanistan"

You'd think we'd hear about this on the news somewhere....
MSNBC is currently doing a piece on Thailand. Ooh, they're breaking in with information from the the Ramsay's attorney...

reality check from Associated Press:

KABUL — A bomb mistakenly dropped by a U.S.-led coalition aircraft killed 10 police officers in eastern Afghanistan on Thursday, the deputy national chief of border police said.

The U.S. military said the incident is under investigation.

The coalition aircraft dropped the bomb on a two-vehicle border police patrol in southeastern Paktika province around 10:30 a.m., said Gen. Abdul Rahman. There were no survivors, he said.

Col. Tom Collins, a spokesman for the U.S.-led coalition, said the force was investigating the report and could not "divulge details at this time."
