Preliminary investigation conducted after the incident revealed that officers went on patrol around the base, during which they identified a suspicious figure, who thought he was a thief. The two performed a suspicious arrest procedure, which ended in an air shot. On the other side stood another officer, a team commander in the same unit, who thought they were firing at him, so he opened fire at the two and killed them. Military medical teams performed resuscitation operations on both officers, ultimately determining their deaths.
Two cruise commanders went on a field patrol, after the night before they had a valuable night-vision device stolen from them, so they were very alert to any suspicious movement in the field. The two wanted to see if there was any equipment, weapons or ammunition left in the area where they were practicing. At the same time, the team commander also carried out a patrol for the same reason. He apparently did not identify clearly and the officers fired at him in the air. The officer felt threatened, opened fire on them - and shot them to death.
