SAVANNAH, Ga. — A soldier was detained in Iraq after he allegedly opened fire on a superior and another unit member, killing them both, the Army said Wednesday.
The soldier was subdued by other troops, said Maj. Gen. Anthony Cucolo, commanding general at Fort Stewart, Ga., where the soldiers’ unit, the 4th Brigade Combat Team of the 3rd Infantry Division, is based.
An Army spokesman said the shooting happened Sunday in Tunnis, Iraq. The Army identified the slain soldiers as Staff Sgt. Darris J. Dawson, 24, of Pensacola, Fla., and Sgt. Wesley R. Durbin, 26, of Hurst, Texas. It did not name the shooter.
