But just before noon Tuesday, a carpenter named Dhiya saw a troop of masked gunmen with grenades coming toward his shop and decided he had had enough. . As the gunmen emerged from their cars, Dhiya and his young relatives shouldered their own AK-47s and opened fire, the police and witnesses said. In the fierce gun battle that followed, three of the insurgents were killed, and the rest fled just after the police arrived. Two of Dhiya's young nephews and a bystander were wounded, the police said. . "We attacked them before they attacked us," said Dhiya, 35, his face still contorted with rage and excitement, in a brief exchange at his shop a few hours after the battle. He did not give his last name. "We killed three of those who call themselves the mujahedeen. I am waiting for the rest of them to come and we will show them." . It was the first time that private citizens are known to have retaliated successfully against insurgents. There have been anecdotal reports of residents' shooting at attackers after a bombing or assassination. . iht.com
