This is a detailed update from a live WJCL 22 News report by Lydia Blackstone at Memorial Health Hospital in Savannah.
Patient Condition and Treatment
- Full Recovery Expected: The most significant update is that all five soldiers who were shot are expected to make a full recovery.
- Hospital Transfer: Two of the soldiers were transferred from the on-base Winn Army Community Hospital to Memorial Health. This was done because Memorial Health is a Level One Trauma Center, better equipped to handle more critical injuries.
- Buddy System: The report noted that a “buddy system” is in place, meaning a fellow service member remains with each injured soldier at the hospital for support.
Suspect Identified
- The suspect in the shooting has been identified as Sergeant Cornelius Radford, 28 years old, from Jacksonville, Florida.
Ongoing Situation
- The hospital was given about an hour’s notice to prepare for the soldiers’ arrival.
- Further updates on the soldiers’ conditions are expected to be released shortly.
- Local law enforcement, including a sheriff, are at the hospital, and more information about their response is anticipated.
