A U.S. Marine died after a training incident in Okinawa, Japan, on Tuesday, the U.S. military announced Wednesday morning, according to The Hill's report on the death. The report, written by Filip Timotija, said the Marine was unnamed and was with the 3rd Marine Division.
According to The Hill, the Marine was training at Camp Schwab, a Marine Corps base located on the northeastern coast of Okinawa Prefecture. The report also addressed the circumstances of the incident, which it said remain under investigation.
ABC News reported the death separately, citing officials. In its account of the Marine's death, ABC News said, according to the Marines, that the incident "is under investigation." The summary of that report does not say where in Japan the incident occurred or on what day.
The two accounts differ in detail. The Hill identified Okinawa and Camp Schwab and gave Tuesday as the day of the incident, while the ABC News summary did not include those details. Neither account, as summarized, names the Marine or describes the training under way at the time.
The summaries available for this story do not state a cause of death. They also do not say whether anyone else was involved in or injured by the incident.
