Military police maj. found dead at Stewart

FORT STEWART, Ga. — Investigators at Fort Stewart are trying to determine what caused the death of a military policeman whose body was found on the Army post.

Fort Stewart spokesman Kevin Larson said Wednesday investigators are awaiting results of an autopsy on the soldier, who was found unresponsive by Fort Stewart police inside a building Tuesday.

The dead soldier was identified as Maj. Paul A. Egli, a military policeman from Thompson Station, Tenn.

Larson said investigators were withholding further information about the death until they received the autopsy results.

The Army says Egli had served in uniform since 1981. He had been stationed at Fort Stewart for the past year.
