Authorities are investigating the death of a family at Fort Stewart Hunter Army Airfield on Nov. 15, the base’s public affairs office said on Thursday.
According to a social media post from Fort Stewart, the installation’s law enforcement was “on the scene of an incident in on-post housing” at around 5:20 p.m. local time Wednesday.
