A Standish man serving in the Marine Corps was allegedly shot and killed by a fellow Marine at a base in South Carolina.
Cpl. Tyler Wallingford, 21, was fatally shot about 9:30 p.m. Friday at the Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, and a suspect, 21-year-old Cpl. Spencer T. Daily, was taken into custody, according to the Marine Corps.
Both Marines were aircraft ordnance technicians assigned to an F-35B training squadron known as Marine Fighter Attack Training Squadron 501, the Marine Corps said.
