Five soldiers were shot after gunfire erupted at the Georgia Army base. A suspect opened fire at an Army base in Georgia on Wednesday, injuring at least five soldiers in an incident military officials described as an “active” shooting. A suspect was taken into custody. The condition of the soldiers was not immediately clear.

A sergeant shot five soldiers Wednesday at one the country's largest Army posts before he was quickly tackled by other Fort Stewart troops, forcing a brief lockdown, officials said.
