US troops have shot dead three members of an Iraqi family and wounded another during a raid on their home in a town near Tikrit.

According to police sources, the forces attacked the house in the town of Durra early Tuesday and killed three members of the family - the father, mother and a son - and wounded the daughter.

The girl was reportedly rushed to a US base for medical treatment.

The incident comes three days after the US military admitted accidentally killing nine Iraqi civilians, including a child, during operations south of Baghdad.
