Ohio investigators are looking into the deaths of three Wright-Patterson Air Force Base employees whose bodies were found across multiple locations near Dayton over the weekend.

“We are deeply saddened by this tragic event, and our thoughts and prayers are with the families and loved ones affected. We stand with them as they navigate this unimaginable pain, and we offer our sincerest condolences to all impacted by this heartbreaking loss,” Lt. Gen.

Base officials identified the victims as first Lt. Jaime Gustitus, 25, of the 711th Human Performance Wing; Jaymee Prichard, 33, of the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center; and Jacob Prichard, 34, who also worked in the Air Force Research Laboratory.
