2 Kings Bay sailors found dead at home days apart

Kingsland police are investigating after two U.S. Navy sailors were found dead at a Kings Bay home days apart.

Officials say Brian Jarrell, 25, was reported missing by his family after he disappeared during a trip to Orlando.

His wife told investigators that the family was at Disney World Oct. 11 for Jarrell's daughter's birthday when he said he wasn't feeling well and left the park.

His wife filed a missing person report with Orange County Sheriff's Office when she got back to the hotel and couldn't find Jarrell.

Jarrell's shipmates began searching for him in Camden County. They found his car outside a friend's home on Spinnaker Circle on Oct. 12.

They asked the tenant, Ty Bell, if they could look for Jarrell inside the house.

They found Jarrell face down in the back bedroom. He was unconscious and cold to the touch.

Officials responded and Jarrell was pronounced dead. He had no known medical issues, according to officials.

Police were called to the home on Spinnaker Circle again on Oct. 16 after someone reported seeing a person laying inside unresponsive.

Police spoke with a U.S. Navy chief, who said he sent two sailors to their shipmate's house after he didn't report for duty.

Police found Bell laying on his back on the couch unresponsive with a white foamy substance coming from his nose.

He did not appear to be breathing. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Officials have not released a cause of death for either sailor.

Both were stationed at Kings Bay Submarine Base.
