A sailor shot in the Chattanooga rampage has died, the U.S. Navy says.

The sailor, identified by relatives as Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Randall Smith, 26,  a native of Paulding, Ohio, was wounded in Thursday's rampage.

Smith, who had been on active duty in Chattanooga, died about 4 a.m., his step-grandmother, Darlene Proxmire, told NewsChannel 15.



Kuwait-born Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez, 24, unleashed a barrage of fire at a recruiting center in Chattanooga, then drove several miles away to a Navy and Marine reserve center, where he shot and killed the Marines, and wounded Smith.

Abdulazeez was shot to death by police
