An active shooter incident occurred on August 6, 2025, at Fort Stewart, a U.S. Army base in Georgia, resulting in five soldiers being shot and wounded. The shooter, identified as 28-year-old Sergeant Quornelius Radford, an active-duty U.S. Army soldier assigned to the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, was apprehended at the scene. The incident prompted a lockdown of the base and mobilization of local law enforcement, the FBI, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. All five injured soldiers were hospitalized and are reported to be in stable condition with expectations of full recovery. The shooting occurred at the soldier’s place of work within the base. The White House has been monitoring the situation closely, and then-President Donald Trump described the event as an "atrocity," stating the perpetrator would be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. The motive behind the shooting remains under investigation. This incident is the latest in a series of attacks at U.S. military installations.
