According to CBS, it was possibly friendly fire by USSF. POTUS is requesting an inquiry as to what transpired because of recent "surveillance footage."

"The U.S.-led NATO coalition says that U.S. forces may have detonated a grenade that killed Linda Norgrove during the operation to free her."

"Norgrove died Friday night - nearly two weeks after being captured - when U.S. special forces stormed the Taliban compound where she was being held in Kunar province."
