The commanding general of Fort Riley, Maj. Gen. Wayne W. Grigsby, was suspended Friday afternoon.
Fort Riley spokesperson Kimeisha McCullum told KMAN no reason was given for the suspension and the matter is pending investigation.
The order came from the Pentagon.
The suspension is effective immediately with no indication on when the suspension may be lifted. It comes days after Patrick Murphy — a top military official and Army undersecretary — visited the facility on Tuesday.
Grigsby took command of the 1st Infantry Division in August 2015.
The post Fort Riley commanding general suspended appeared first on 1350 KMAN.
