On May 3, 2024, a Special Operations Colonel shot and killed Ramzan Daraev, a 35-year-old Chechen man, outside his home near Fort Liberty. Initially reported as a trespassing incident, emerging details suggest a complex scenario involving potential surveillance and security threats. Daraev, who lacked identification and equipment, was allegedly photographing the Colonel’s property under suspicious circumstances. This incident, alongside recent probing activities at Quantico, Langley, and other military bases, underscores heightened concerns about potential attacks on former military personnel and special operations units.
