CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. — A North Carolina Marine was arrested Friday in the death of a fellow Marine at Camp Lejeune.
Pvt. Jonathan Law, 21, was in military custody after a homicide about 1 a.m. Friday, according to Capt. Timothy Patrick, a Marine Corps spokesman. The body was found in the woods, but officials did not release the name of the victim.
Officials said a firearm wasn't used in the killing, but did not say how the Marine died.
The base said information about the victim will be made available after the slain Marine's family has been notified.
Law was in serious condition at Pitt Memorial Hospital in Greenville for self-inflicted wounds, Patrick said.
Law is a supply administration clerk who joined the Marines in August 2006. He served in Iraq from August 2007 to March 2008.
