NTC military official claims deposed Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has been captured, wounded in both legs, taken away by ambulance.What time does Obama take a victory lap?
Libyan interim government fighters captured Muammar Gaddafi's home town on Thursday, extinguishing the last significant resistance by forces loyal to the deposed leader and ending a two-month siege.
The capture of Sirte means Libya's ruling National Transitional Council (NTC) should now begin the task of forging a new democratic system which it had said it would start after the city, built as a showpiece for Gaddafi's rule, had fallen.
The US State Department on Thursday said it could not confirm that deposed Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has been captured and wounded in both legs.
"We've seen the media reports but can't confirm them," State Department spokeswoman Beth Gosselin told Reuters.
