A family of four were found dead Wednesday in their home at Fort Stewart, Georgia, in one of the Army base's housing units, officials said Thursday.
"The deceased are one female Soldier, her male spouse, and their two children," Fort Stewart announced on X. "Their identities will not be released at this time due to next of kin notification and privacy."
Fort Stewart military police arrived at the family's home around 2 p.m. Wednesday to contact the soldier after her unit requested a welfare check. They found the family unresponsive and pronounced them dead around 5:30 p.m.
Law enforcement said that the incident was isolated and that there was no remaining threat to the base, about 40 miles southwest of Savannah.
The Army Department's Criminal Investigation Division is investigating and said it cannot provide additional information.
In 2019, three soldiers were killed at Fort Stewart when their tank overturned during an overnight training exercise. Last year, a soldier was killed in a helicopter incident at the post's airfield.
