Fort Bragg is located in Fayetteville, North Carolina. A Fort Bragg soldier was killed and two others, including the gunman, injured Thursday, June 28, 2012, in a shooting on post, officials said.

A soldier from the 525th Battlefield Surveillance Brigade shot another member of the unit and then turned the gun on himself outside in a field during a unit safety briefing around 3:30 p.m., public affairs officer Col. Kevin Arata said.

The shooter was in custody Thursday night at undisclosed hospital. A third soldier suffered minor injuries.

Fort Bragg officials have not released the names or ranks of those involved or indicated what might have led to the shooting.

This appears to me another manifestation of the Fayette Factor at work.
