Saddam Hussein has been captured and brought into custody. Soldiers found him hiding in a "spider hole" - a tiny, bricked in hole with a pipe to breathe through.

Soldiers first performed a raid on the town of Adwar, but failed to discover him there. After an intensive search of the area, going door to door, they came across an area that had been walled off - containing a mud hut and a small lean to.

They found that there was a ventilation pipe leading around 6' down. Digging, they found a brick-and-mud small room containing the tired, bearded Saddam Hussein.

CNN reports that the Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez said of Saddam Hussein, "He was a tired man and also a man resigned to his fate."
