Marines Find Possible Mobile Bio-Weapons Lab Thursday, April 10, 2003 By Rick Leventhal BAGHDAD, Iraq — U.S. Marines near Baghdad may have found a mobile biological- or chemical-weapons lab, Fox News learned Thursday afternoon. Resembling a refrigerated truck from the outside, and containing guided-missile support equipment, the truck was found to have a false internal wall that concealed an remote-controlled electronic pulley-and-winch system and several open bins and containers. Investigators told Fox News the system resembled a hazardous-materials lab, where substances could be mixed, cooled and heated without direct human contact. Hazardous materials may have been found inside the truck as well. Marines found the truck parked at what resembled a construction site, but it started to drive away as they approached and refused orders to stop. The U.S. forces fired upon the truck. There was no information on the driver, but video footage of the scene showed the driver's-door window shot out. Anti-aircraft guns, a surface-to-air missile and several caches of weapons and ammunition were also found at the site. foxnews.com
