From Christopher Gillette and Rami Al-Shaheibi, the AP: NATO confirms it hit a convoy of Moammar Gadhafi’s loyalists fleeing Sirte as the city fell Thursday, but there are conflicting reports whether the ousted Libyan leader was in the convoy or possibly killed or captured.
Col. Roland Lavoie, spokesman for NATO’s operational headquarters in Naples, Italy, says the alliance’s aircraft Thursday morning struck two vehicles of pro-Gadhafi forces "which were part of a larger group maneuvering in the vicinity of Sirte."
