UPDATE | Last 4 soldiers missing from Fort Hood accident found dead

FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — The last four soldiers still missing after a truck carrying a dozen troops was washed from a flooded low-water cross at Fort Hood were found dead today, bringing the death toll from the accident to nine.

The bodies were found downstream from the Owl Creek Tactical Crossing where the swift waters of the flooded creek swept the troop carrier from the crossing, said Maj. Gen. John Uberti, Fort Hood deputy commander. Three other occupants of the 2 1/2-ton troop carrier were found dead shortly after the Thursday morning accident, and two more were found dead Thursday night.

Three survivors were discharged from Fort Hood’s hospital today, Uberti said at an evening briefing at the Central Texas Army post. Identities of the dead were being withheld pending notification of their families, he said.
