Military investigators are looking into the death of a 4-year-old girl who was on the Fort Rucker

Military investigators are looking into the death of a 4-year-old girl who was on the Fort Rucker post prior to her death.
Emily “Emmy” Grace Noel Schrad, 4, of Brantley, was pronounced dead Aug. 4 at Birmingham’s Children’s Hospital after being airlifted from Medical Center Enterprise on Aug. 1 with a head injury.
While Fort Rucker officials confirmed an investigation continues into Emily’s death, no other details were provided.
“Subsequently Army officials opened an investigation surrounding the circumstances of how she was injured and into her death. The incident remains under investigation,” said the statement, released Monday by the Fort Rucker Public Affairs Office after inquiries by a local newspaper into the girl’s death.
Funeral services were held Aug. 9 at the Indian Creek Community Church in Brantley.
