Gaddafi: found

An article at Khaleej Times has announced the demise of Muammar Gaddafi. He was located in the town of his birth, with what is believed to be the last of his well-armed supporters. He was found, captured and only after that were the fatal blows dealt. Based on one article it seems as though there may be video footage of the event.

The militia had been advised to avoid revenge killings and to be careful in their ascent of power by force. Handing Gaddafi, alive, over to the ICC would have been the most effective method for which to establish the new government and regime's legitimacy. NATO forces and support has already begun to be recalled.
