BAGHDAD (AP) — The U.S. military says a Marine has died in a non-combat related incident in Iraq.

The announcement pushes the monthly American death toll to 21 as May draws to a close. It's the lowest number since February 2004, when 20 troop deaths were recorded.

That's according to an Associated Press tally based on military figures.

The brief military statement says the Multi-National Force — West Marine died on Friday and the incident is under investigation. It doesn't give a location but the division operates west of Baghdad, primarily in the Anbar province.
