BAGHDAD, Iraq - Five people escaped from a U.S. detention center in northern Iraq, the U.S. command said Wednesday.

The detainees escaped early Tuesday from the Fort Suse Theater internment facility near Sulaimaniyah, 160 miles northeast of Baghdad, said Spc. Stacy Sanning, a spokesman for the U.S. command in Baghdad. U.S. soldiers and Iraqi forces were searching for them, he said.

Sanning did not identify the escapees, saying the incident was being investigated, but Col. David Gray, commander of the 1st Brigade of the 101st Airborne Division, said three were Arabs and a fourth was an Iraqi Kurd. The nationality of the fifth was not immediately known.
