Five soldiers were wounded in a shooting Wednesday morning at the Fort Stewart Army base in Georgia before the suspected gunman was taken into custody, the Army said.
"Law enforcement was dispatched for a possible shooting in the 2nd ABCT complex at 10:56 a.m. The shooter was apprehended at 11:35 a.m.," it said in a Facebook post.
"The installation was locked down at 11:04 a.m. and law enforcement is on the scene at the time. Casualties have been reported, and the situation is ongoing," the post said.
The 3rd Infantry Division, which is based at Fort Stewart, meanwhile, said in a post on X that personnel should "stay inside" and "close and lock all windows and doors."
Few details were immediately available about what led to the gunfire, but officials said the shooter was Sgt. Quornelius Radford, 28, who used a personal handgun, not a military firearm.
