Fort Stewart spokesman Kevin Larson declined to identify the soldier or say how the injury occurred Wednesday evening, citing the continuing investigation. But Larson confirmed the soldier is a member of the Fort-Stewart-based 3rd Infantry Division and remains hospitalized in critical condition.

Fort Stewart is located about 40 miles southwest of Savannah.
