What exactly transpired in Moammar Gadhafi's last moments remains unclear. A video from Al Jazeera shows a badly injured Gadhafi captured alive and being loaded by anti-Gadhafi fighters into an ambulance in Sirte. (The grisly video along with photos are in the gallery.) He was dead soon after:
- New York Times: "Conflicting accounts quickly emerged about whether (Gadhafi) was executed by his captors, died from gunshot wounds sustained in a firefight, was killed in a NATO bomb blast or bled to death in an ambulance."
- Reuters: It quotes a source in Libya's National Transitional Council: "They captured him alive and while he was being taken away, they beat him and then they killed. He might have been resisting."
