27 soldiers hurt when vehicles crash at Fort Drum

FORT DRUM -- Officials say two Fort Drum soldiers were seriously injured and 25 other soldiers were taken to area hospitals after a four-vehicle crash on the Army base.

Spokeswoman Julie Cupernall told The (Syracuse) Post-Standard that the crash happened at around noon Sunday when a military transport vehicle stopped suddenly on Range 31, a training range. The vehicle traveling behind it crashed into it, causing a chain reaction.

Cupernall said the vehicles involved were medium-sized tactical vehicles used to move soldiers. The cause of the crash is still under investigation.

The soldiers were in the 2nd Battalion, 14th Infantry Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division.
