A 20-year-old soldier stationed at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson was killed Saturday during a live-fire training exercise at Donnelly Training Area near Fort Greely, about 100 miles from Fairbanks, Alaska.

Spc. Nicholas DiMona III of New Jersey died from a gunshot wound, U.S. Army Alaska officials said. He received immediate care from medical personnel at the military base before being airlifted to Fairbanks Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
