Four Britons have been attacked on a highway in the north west of Baghdad, the Foreign Office has said.
The four escaped unhurt but one Iraqi was killed when a convoy of three vehicles was fired upon on Sunday.
Two of the cars crashed after being hit by "small arms fire", and were set on fire by a crowd of Iraqis who cheered in celebration.
One report said the Britons had managed to escape from the gunmen by flagging down another car and driving away.
