Paul Conroy.

Okay, Paul,

explain to me what's going on.

Me and a convoy of other drivers...

Were delivering some kitchen

supplies to a community center.

Some kids started

throwing rocks at the trucks.

Then an IED went off up ahead and

blew up one of the other trucks.

And these guys came out

from behind the houses...

with guns and started shooting everyone...

right there on the street.

Were you shot at?

I don't know!

I don't know. I was way in the

back of the convoy.

I guess I got hit in the head with

one of the rocks and blacked out.

That's the last thing I remember.

And I woke up here,

tied up in a coffin.

- Who put you there?

- I guess whoever ambushed us.

- A bunch of kids?

- No, no, no.

The kids threw the rocks at us.

but then some Iraqi guys... maybe

insurgents, I don't f***ing know...

They just popped out and started

shooting everybody right there on the street.

I thought you said they didn't

shoot at you.

They didn't, I don't know!

But they shot them!

Sir, you're going to have

to stop shouting...

I'm shouting because

you're not listening to me!

I need you to help me!

Okay, okay, okay!

Can you trace my call?

GPS or something?

Why is it that they

didn't shoot you?

I don't know, I have no idea.

They didn't, that's all I know.

What's your social

security number?

Why? Why?

Who cares?

I'm buried in the

middle of the f***ing desert!

Who cares what my social

security number is?!

I'm an American citizen.

Just send someone to find me, please!

- Do you know where you're... lo... if... dy..

- Hold on! I can't hear you.

What did you...

Hold on!

No, no, no, just...

Sh*t!
