A Navy sailor shot in the Chattanooga shooting rampage has died, his step-grandmother confirmed to CBS News Saturday.
Darlene Proxmire confirmed to CBS Radio News that Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Randall Smith had died.
The Navy issued a statement that didn’t identify the sailor but said that the petty officer wounded in Thursday’s shooting died Saturday at 2:17 a.m.
Authorities say Kuwait-born Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez, 24, of Hixson, Tennessee, unleashed a barrage of fire at a recruiting center in Chattanooga, then drove several miles away to a Navy and Marine reserve center, where he shot and killed the Marines, and wounded the sailor. Abdulazeez was shot to death by police.
