Two acounts of the Sgrena/Calipari shooting

The Italian account is much more detail, the type of report I'd expect from a professional secret service agent. The American version sounds like a spin doctor talking.

US military
: Car approaches checkpoint at high speed
Troops attempt to tell driver to stop with arm signals, lights and warning shots
Soldiers shoot into engine

Italian government: Italy makes all necessary contacts with the US for safe passage
The driver stops immediately when a light flashes 10m away
At the same time, shots are fired for 10-15 secs into the car
