FORT BRAGG, N.C. — A 5-month-old child living in Fort Bragg housing has become the 11th infant since 2007 to die in unexplained circumstances at the post.

The Fayetteville Observer reports the unidentified child died Saturday. Fort Bragg officials announced the death Monday.

Col. Kevin Arata says the post wouldn't normally discuss such deaths. He says officials are doing so in this case because of an ongoing investigation into the unexplained deaths of 10 other infants in Fort Bragg housing.

Fort Bragg officials say the death toll is not unusual for a community of its size. But the Army Criminal Investigation Command and other agencies are testing the houses where the children died.
