BAGHDAD - Iraqi police and hospitals say five people died and 17 were wounded in overnight clashes in Baghdad's Sadr City district.
The fighting lasted into Sunday morning. It comes a day after the Iraqi government relaxed security measures in Sadr City and the Shula neighborhood. Both are strongholds of Muqtada al-Sadr's Mahdi Army militia.
Officials at two local hospitals say the injured include two women and four children.
Police say that a U.S. armored personnel carrier was destroyed in the clashes. The U.S. military had no immediate comment.
