MOSUL, Iraq, Nov 14 (Reuters) - Insurgents overran a police station in the northern Iraq city of Mosul on Sunday and U.S. troops, backed by Iraqi security forces, were battling to retake it from them.

A U.S. military spokeswoman in the city said a group of insurgents stormed the Sheikh Fatih police station in southwestern Mosul earlier in the day and said U.S. and Iraqi forces had been fighting for more than two hours to retake it.
