BREAKING NEWS / ARMY GIVES UPDATE ON SHOOTING AT FORT STEWART

BREAKING: Brigadier General John Lubas has confirmed that the alleged shooter is Quornelius Radford.

Brigadier General John Lubas: “Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and thank you for joining us. This morning, shortly before 11 o’clock, an active-duty soldier assigned to Fort Stewart, Georgia, shot and wounded five of his fellow soldiers here on Fort Stewart. Thankfully, all are in stable condition and all are expected to recover. The alleged shooter is in custody. We have reestablished security, I have lifted all lockdown measures on Fort Stewart, and there is currently no threat to the local community.

I would like to recognize and thank our Army law enforcement and medical personnel and our partners from local, state, and federal law enforcement and emergency services for their quick response and support. I would also like to thank the brave soldiers who immediately intervened and subdued the shooter. These soldiers, without a doubt, prevented further casualties. Our wounded soldiers were initially evacuated to Winn Army Community Hospital right here on Fort Stewart. All arrived in stable condition and three of the five required surgical intervention. Two have been transported to Memorial Hospital in Savannah, Georgia, for additional care.

We have identified the alleged shooter as Sergeant Quornelius Radford, an automated logistics sergeant assigned to the Second Brigade Combat Team. Sergeant Radford has not previously deployed to combat. Sergeant Radford has been interviewed by the Army Criminal Investigation Division and is currently in pre-trial confinement awaiting a charging decision by the Office of the Special Trial Counsel. Right now, our primary focus is first on caring for our injured soldiers and their families, and also supporting the Soldiers of the Spartan Brigade. All of the families of the victims have been notified and we are wrapping our arms around them and ensuring we provide them all the support that we can.

Before I take questions, I want to remind you that this is an ongoing investigation and we’re still gathering information. And ladies and gentlemen, I will now take your questions.”

Reporter: “General Lubas, can you give us the unit he was assigned to and how long he has served in the Army?”
