Deaths of soldier, husband and 2 kids found dead at Fort Stewart Army base ruled ‘domestic in nature

Despite the domestic ruling, officials have not yet indicated whether the incident will be considered a crime.

Fort Stewart is the biggest Army post east of the Mississippi River and is located about 40 miles southwest of Savannah.

The family’s death is the latest in a string of tragic deaths to swarm the Army base.

Last year, Spc. Shay A. Wilson, 28, of Queens, New York, allegedly used a privately owned firearm to gun down 30-year-old Sgt. Nathan Hillman of Plum, Pennsylvania, inside one of the fort building complexes.

Months earlier, a medical evacuation pilot was killed when he crashed his helicopter into another Black Hawk in what officials ruled as a suicide.
