A U.S. Navy petty officer identified by relatives as Randall Smith, 26, of Paulding, Ohio, died Saturday of wounds suffered after a gunman opened fire Thursday on a military recruiting center in Chattanooga, Tenn., according to media reports. Four Marines were killed in the attack and two other people were wounded. Smith and his wife had three young daughters, Reuters said. The suspected attacker, Mohammod Youssuf Abdulazeez, a Kuwaiti-born naturalized U.S. citizen, also died on Thursday in a shootout with police. The FBI, which is investigating the incident as an act of terrorism, said it’s premature to speculate on a motive, Reuters reported.
