Army spouse arrested in shooting death of Fort Campbell Soldier

I don't know if any of you keep up with the Army Times or Stars and Stripes, but this is becoming a fairly common occurrence.


An Army spouse was in custody Sunday following the death of a Fort Campbell, Kentucky, Soldier by gunshot wound, according to a Monday news release. The post locked down all gates just before 10 p.m. Sunday after a shooting in a housing area, the release said. “Our hearts and prayers are with the families involved,” BG Todd Royar, the acting senior commander of Fort Campbell and the 101st Airborne Division, said in a statement. “Any loss of a Soldier has a profound impact on the entire Army family.” No one was allowed in or out of the post’s gates for an hour Sunday night, according to a post on Fort Campell’s Facebook page. “Our priority remains the safety and security of our Soldiers, their family members and our civilian personnel,” Royar said. The names of the victim and alleged perpetrator are being withheld pending next-of-kin notification, the release said. Policy dictates waiting 24 hours after notification to release identities. The incident is under investigation by both Army Criminal Investigation Command and the FBI, the release said.
