ABC7 KVIA is reporting that a female US Army soldier at Fort Bliss was attacked by some of our Afghani “allies” housed there in a temporary refugee camp. From the report<\/a>;<\/p>\n

The FBI is investigating the assault of a female Fort Bliss soldier by several male Afghan refugees at the Army’s Do\u00f1a Ana Complex camp where thousands are currently being housed, officials told ABC-7 on Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can confirm a female service member supporting Operation Allies Welcome reported being assaulted on Sept. 19 by a small group of male evacuees at the Do\u00f1a Ana Complex in New Mexico,” said Lt. Col. Allie Payne, director of Public Affairs for Fort Bliss and the 1st Armored Division.<\/p>\n

She said the assaulted soldier had received medical care and counseling. In the wake of the attack, Payne said additional security measures – including improved lightning – were being implemented at the Do\u00f1a Ana Complex<\/p>\n

“We take the allegation seriously and appropriately referred the matter to the Federal Bureau of Investigation,” Payne indicated.<\/p>\n

Payne declined to provide additional details about the incident because of the FBI probe, referring further questions to them.<\/p>\n

Special Agent Jeanette Harper of the FBI’s El Paso division confirmed that “we received the referral from Fort Bliss and our office is investigating the allegation.\u201d She didn’t elaborate.<\/p>\n

But sources with knowledge of the case told ABC-7 that the soldier was attacked around midnight last Sunday by at least three Afghan men near her car after she arrived at the complex for duty.<\/p>\n

The assault wasn’t sexual in the nature, the sources said, adding that the woman soldier’s injuries didn’t require hospitalization and she was physically doing fine as of now.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
